Artificial deviation

Description

At the first bridge, to the right you will notice an artificial deviation (2) of the main waterway (with a paddle), which was once used to power the bellows and hammer.

Documents describe the presence of a finery forge at this place (where cast iron is processed), in operation from 1501 to 1860.
