Source text - English At the entrance to the village are some popular stone sculptures, with a native land definition, work of the great sculptor XXX. It is possible (by prior arrangement) to see the small handicrafts: stone manufacture, an olive oil press, and in the autumn, the refinement of medical herbs. In this untouched area, oil is “cold” pressed and is characterized by its excellent quality which each year received the highest accolades.
Translation - Italian All’entrata del villaggio si ergono alcune famose statue in pietra, con una spiccata connotazione locale, opera del grande scultore XXX. E’ possibile visitare (previo appuntamento) una serie di piccole attività artigianali che si dedicano alla lavorazione della pietra, all’estrazione dell’olio d’oliva e, in autunno, alla produzione di piante medicinali. In questa regione incontaminata, l’olio viene pressato “a freddo” e si distingue per la sua ottima qualità che, ogni anno, riceve i più alti riconoscimenti.
