Cësa Bugon
Seat of one of the oldest manufacturers of wooden toys
After the 1830s, Cësa Bugon was the seat of 'Insam & Prinoth', one of the largest pre-First World War toy manufacturers in Val Gardena. The company had a branch in Nuremberg in 1820 and, later on, one in London. There was a large warehouse as well as the manufacturing premises with offices and packaging workshop housed in a stable and the goods were transported from there to the point connecting up with the railway network.
