Fucine, ferrari e lavorazione del ferro nella Valtellina del basso medioevo (2022)

unapi

The essay investigates iron-working in the middle Valtellina valley during the late Middle Ages based on archive data. This has led to the reconstruction of the geographical distribution of the forges and, through the analysis of several inventories, their facilities and equipment. In several cases, mills built for the forges made it possible to carry out several different productive activities. The study also discusses the group of people involved in iron-working: blacksmiths (ferrari). These entrepreneurs involved in iron-making, who were well-off and could count on a support network, were often immigrants from the Bergamesque Alps.
