Experience the Lecce Stone

A fantastic experience

Anghelos aims at a project where art, hospitality and education come together to offer the visitor a unique and memorable experience. The objectives it proposes are many and go beyond what a traditional laboratory can offer.

This idea, in fact, transforms a laboratory "closed" and folded in on itself and in its own secrets, into a laboratory "open" to the sharing of knowledge, combining the artistic work of the laboratory with tourist accommodation. The tourist, interacting with our best artisans, has the opportunity to have a new experience.

The transfer of experiences and skills between generations takes place with the accompaniment methodology (mentoring and coaching) ; through the practical and real reproduction of the craft. Particular attention of the project is placed on the recycling and reuse of so-called secondary raw materials.

Experiential tourism

Anghelos'goal is also to bring new generations, students and young people closer together, through the intergenerational transfer of skills and to interest and involve tourists in our Salento culture and art (through the so-called experiential tourism).
