The ruins of the hermitage, the Torre Davidica or Torre Giurisdavidica, of David Lazzaretti or Davide Lazzaretti (Arcidosso, November 6, 1834 - Bagnore, August 18, 1878), an Italian preacher and rebel. His name is linked to the Giurisdavidismo, his doctrine.Monte Labbro, Arcidosso, Grosseto, Tuscany, Italy. He worked in Tuscany in the Monte Amiata region at the end of the nineteenth century. For his visionary vision and his tragic end he was called the Christ of Amiata or the Prophet of Amiata. The aversion of the state and the church to his messianism caused his death, which took place on August 18, 1878, when he was killed by the Carabinieri at the end of an impressive parade in Arcidosso. The Mt. Amiata Project is an ongoing GDH collaboration involving faculty and students at the University of Florence and the University of Siena. We could not have done this project without the considerable support of the Municipality of Arcidosso. 5675 Drone and Terrestrial photos, 61 Faro laser scans
