At the town of Cainari di Castello Tesino, past the Brocon Pass in the direction of Canal San Bovo, two ancient mills have recently been renovated.

El molin de sora

Dating back to 1779, it was also a tavern in the past and stopped working after the 1966 flood. This mill will return to grinding, both for educational purposes and for the group of sorc growers of the Vanoi and Cismon valleys, who have been growing a variety of corn - sorc in dialect - locally for a few years: the Dorothea variety.

 

El molin de sot

It has become an exhibition space with installations on water machines, with texts and stories related to the mill and the figure of the miller.

In addition, workshops for children and young people are held at the molin de sot, including Sòrc and its surroundings, during the summer. The purpose of these activities is to tell the children about the maize supply chain from the field to the grinding of the grains, through the creative use of secondary products, including stalks, leaves and semolina
