Terre Roveresche - Terracotta production

 
Like the nearby Fratterosa, the municipality of Barchi  is renowned for the production of pottery.
In Barchi a must see attraction is the Museum of Orci (terracotta pots) and Banda Grossi potters, collecting valuable terracotta pots.
The Terracotta pot company was founded in the 60s by a group of artisans and now is run by a keen and skilful family (the Pandolfi brothers).
The production of pottery is renowned not only in  Barchi, but also in the surrounding villages (Vergineto, San Bartolo and Villa del Monte).
