Bell Tower of Resia
Witness the surreal sight of the Bell Tower of Resia, emerging dramatically from the surface of Lake Resia in South Tyrol. This lone tower is all that remains of the submerged village of Curon, deliberately flooded in 1950 to create a hydroelectric basin. This unique, poignant landmark—often visible above the frozen lake in winter—serves as a powerful, silent monument to a community’s past, inviting deep reflection on history and landscape transformation in the Alps.
