from Ma tu guarda! – Brescia to listen to · host Comune di Brescia
An ancient chessboard carved into stone… and placed three metres high. No one knows who put it there, nor why. It is a relic from the Roman era and is still little known, as it is far from the spotlight of major monuments. That’s precisely why its story deserves to be told.#Brescia #Lombardy #Italy #archaeology #Brixia #RomanBrescia #Capitolium #Porta Paganora
