Posta di Bosco Spirito

A "posta" is an ancient rural structure, often isolated or close to the farmhouses, which served as a shelter for flocks (with sheds and porches) and evolved into buildings for the processing of dairy products and the winter lodging of shepherds during the transhumance, becoming self-sufficient for prolonged periods, connected to the larger complexes of the farmhouses

Palmento Abbazzia


A palmento is a historical structure typical of the Mediterranean basin (and widespread across Southern Italy) used for treading grapes and fermenting must for wine production.
In the past, it was the beating heart of the local agricultural economy—a place where grueling labor blended with the social ritual of the harvest.
