Hidden doorways, arches and stonework revealed

As we have already reported earlier this year, changes are happening in Barga for people wishing to eat out.

False walls and plasterwork inside the building have been torn down to reveal some very beautiful stone work probably dating back 500 years, some original terracotta tiles on the floor and even a walled up archway and door leading into another cantina.
