In the Lagazuoi and 5 Torri  area, we see the signs of history.Beyond the Falzarego pass rises the Castle of Andraz , one of the most ancient castles in the Dolomites.

It was built in 1027 over a  great landslide, to defend the foundries and the road along which the iron dug out of the mines of Mount Pore travelled.

The raw material underwent an initial working process in the neighbouring valleys. The quality of the iron was excellent and was used for manufacturing fine swords, which were  exported all over Europe .
