Excursion on the island of Capraia. The dry stone walls in the former agricultural penal colony

The rock has always been a ally of man, who has used it since antiquity in the art of dry stone walls, useful for creating terraces and practicing agriculture, protecting crops, identifying properties, and using the territory. Dry stone walls, inscribed in the UNESCO Intangible Heritage List since 2018, characterize the cultural landscape of the island of Capraia, from the coast to the inland areas, hidden among the vegetation or recovered for modern productive activities. The guided tour in the area of the former penal colony of the island will make us discover them.
