The area was known as “the huts” because there were stables for the shelter animals, remittances for agricultural tools and warehouses for the storage of food products such as flour, beans, sausages etc.
After the earthquake of 1920, which our homes survived unscathed, thanks precisely to their being close to Mount Calamaia, the stables were converted into dwellings in the land behind creating terraces planted: Clemente Orsi lived here with his wife Teresa Paladini, dialect Trè, with their five children Ilde, Teodora, Jacopo, Matteo e Mario.
