Fabbriche di Careggine

Local namePaese sommerso di Fabbriche di Careggine
LocationCareggine, Italy

Fabbriche di Careggine was a medieval-era Italian village in Tuscany built in 1270. The village has been inundated since the construction of the ENEL Dam and the subsequent formation of the artificial Lago di Vagli in 1946. The village is submerged under 34 million cubic meters of water and the community structures below — homes, churches, cemeteries — are still preserved. The village is occasionally seen when the lake is drained to conduct maintenance work. The village was last seen above water in 1994. It is expected that the village will resurface again in 2021, after 27 years beneath the lake's surface.
