Doss dl Preve

Farmhouse belonging to the St. Anna fraternity

This detached farmhouse separated from Scurcia, its mother farm, and was first mentioned in records in 1420. In 1520, it passed to the fraternity of St. Anna church, as is reflected in the name. This shared farmhouse was converted in the 20th century and the wooden 'palancin' structure turned into a balcony. The sculptor Franz Tavella and, later, the sculptor and crib carver Luis Alois Insam worked at Doss dl Preve in the 1890s.
