Percorso dei Mulini

Eboli's Mills Trail follows the Tufara stream past the remains of watermills and aqueducts that once supported local agriculture and crafts.

Why it matters

The trail interprets the role of water power in Eboli's economic history. The stream supported milling, irrigation, washing and small artisan workshops, leaving structures that remain visible along its course.

What to notice

The route's historical features include abandoned mill buildings, stone arches, aqueduct remains, springs, cascades and small pools. Near the castle, a medieval aqueduct crosses the landscape on a series of arches. The watercourse is known by different names along its length, including Ermice, Tufara and Telegro.

Context and history

Eboli's perennial stream powered a series of mills for centuries. The municipality's interpretation links the mills with the agricultural and craft economy of the hillside. A small exhibition on the mills is housed in the Due Chiavi mill, extending the industrial history into the town.
