Laas Marble Quarries
Highlight • Structure
The milestones along the Via Claudia Augusta Roman road were already made of Lasa marble in ancient times, and in the Middle Ages the white stone from Nördersberg in Vinschgau was used for portals, heraldic stones and ornaments, especially in Vinschgau castles. The marble vein, which was temporarily forgotten, was rediscovered in the 19th century. Since then Lasa marble has been quarried again in the Jennwand and Weißwasser quarries. Today, Lasa marble and marble from the Covelano quarry are mainly used in construction, architecture and art. In order to make the extremely versatile stone interesting for artists, the vocational school for stone processing was founded in Lasa in 1982.
