Rucas

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Located on a natural terrace just over 1,560 meters above the Montoso hamlet in the Infernotto Valley. Rucas offers a unique view of the Po Valley, framed by the stupendous profile of the Cottian Alps, and the majestic view of Mount Friolànd (2,738 m) and Punta d'Ostanetta (2,385 m). Many stone quarries are still active nearby.

It takes its name from a characteristic rock called rucas in the local dialect.

Luserna Stone Quarries (Montoso)

Highlight • Structure

Pietra di Luserna is a valuable metamorphic rock, known as lamellar gneiss, extracted mainly in the Cottian Prealps of central-western Piedmont, between Val Pellice and Valle Po. The municipalities of Luserna San Giovanni, Rorà and Bagnolo Piemonte are home to numerous active quarries, with a significant concentration in the town of Montoso, located at about 1,400 meters above sea level.
The extraction of Pietra di Luserna dates back to at least the 17th century, with historical documentation attesting to the presence of 42 operating quarries and the employment of 84 workers as early as 1833-34. This stone has been used in important architectural works, including the external flooring of the royal palaces of Turin, Racconigi and Venaria Reale.
The stone is processed both on site and in nearby towns, such as Bagnolo Piemonte, where the extracted stones are subjected to various processes and treatments to enhance their beauty and natural characteristics.
Today, Luserna Stone continues to represent a significant economic resource for the region, keeping alive a centuries-old tradition that unites craftsmanship and industry.
