About the Stele Statue Museum
One of the museums that can absolutely not be missed during a visit to the Lunigiana is the impressive Stele Statue Museum in Pontremoli. The museum, housed since 1975 inside the Piagnaro Castle, features a permanent exhibition about the mysterious megaliths found in the Lunigiana territory. The Stele Statues are abstract representations of male and female figures, carved in sandstone by the populations that lived in the area between the 4th and 1st millennium BCE.
