The Gold of Monte Rosa: the hidden treasure of the Alps

Gold Under Monte Rosa

For 700 years, Monte Rosa has guarded one of Italy’s most important gold deposits. From the first extractions in the 13th century to the industrial boom of the 1800s, until the tragic closure in 1961: the fascinating story of gold that still sleeps beneath the rocks of the Anzasca and Antrona valleys, waiting for a new gold rush that may never come.
