The work of marble is hard and dangerous, since 1947 there is a 'madonnina' of the quarryman who is celebrated in the park called 'Segheria' in Gorfigliano, one of the two marble basins of the Garfagnana. Under the crowns of the chestnut trees there is also a stele showing the many names of those who fell in those quarries. The population has a strong veneration for this little virgin of white marble that is stationed throughout the year at the quarry of the Bacolaio, in the Acqua Bianca basin, (Photo by: Federico Tovoli / VWPics/UIG)
