The history of the Residence La Ferriera began in the mid-nineteenth century. The structure was founded as a foundry for metal processing and the production of objects for agricultural use. The fumes produced by the metal fusion were dispersed through the large brick chimneys still visible today.
Then the production of Flour and the activity of Filanda was added. The silkworms for yarn production were bred inside the complex, only 30 years later.
To improve the new type of machining, the owner installed an electric turbine, later used to supply electricity to the whole country of Loro Ciuffenna until the 1930s.
In 1996, the Property was purchased by Mr Rampi, current owners who turned him into a residence after careful restoration with great care
Keep its history and artistic and cultural peculiarities.
