A warm light filters through the windows of the former Saceba cement factory, illuminating the smooth grey cement walls. The Torre dei Forni has been brought back to life.

At first glance, you weren't particularly struck by the large building immersed in greenery in the Breggia Gorge Park. However, after visiting the former factory you became fascinated by its history and its versatile industrial spaces. The decision was an easy one and you booked the Torre dei Forni at once.

Today you reach the venue with your guests as the sun is beginning to go down. The evocative lighting makes it even more mysterious. As planned, the ground floor is all set up for your welcome speech. Afterwards, the red stairs will lead you into the very heart of the factory. Your visitors are genuinely curious to learn all about the history of the former cement works between one nibble and the next.
