Bergknappen 2026: recreation of the medieval mining era. The event takes its name from the numerous miners who came to Primiero from various areas of Tyrol and the entire Germanic world, the "Bergknappen". The wonderful space surrounding the Palazzo delle Miniere will be enhanced with moments of "lived" medieval life within the Village, located in the garden of the Palazzo.
The Village will be lively with spectacular events related to the mining world of that era and the famous "canopi", miners, anonymous heroes of this extraordinary epic.
