The cultural tourism itinerary of terraccogliente is developed among the earthen houses open for visits with the formula ofwidespread hospitality. During the events, the earth houses can host workshop activities to learn about the earth material, art and craft workshops, taste workshops, ethnographic exhibitions, photo exhibitions, and set-ups between art, architecture and design.

The main objective of the itinerary is to promote the preservation and recovery of traditional historic earthen buildings as the identity heritage of communities.

During terraccogliente events, best practices for the recovery of earthen architecture through the use of natural and sustainable materials are presented, with emphasis on aesthetic sense and living comfort.

With terraccogliente, the Association seeks to convey awareness among owners of earthen houses that they possess a very important historical and architectural heritage and therefore a cultural asset to be protected.
