Via Cava: The Cave Roads of Tuscany
Via Cava in the town of Pitigliano, Italy. It is also possible that the Via Cava is much older than assumed. We do not know what Via Cava was used for. They might also have served a defensive function against invaders and wild animals. At later times, small shrines and crucifixes were carved into the rock walls.
