About
Labirinto Della Masone, built by Franco Maria Ricci (1937–2020) after an idea of his friend the Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges, was at one time the largest maze in the world. Following Ricci's death, the puzzle of about eight hectares has remained a tourist attraction in the town of Fontanellato near Parma, Italy. It is adjoined by an arts complex including a museum displaying Maria Ricci's eccentric art collection and typeface holdings especially those of Giambattista Bodoni and another art gallery exhibiting Maria Ricci's work as a graphic designer. The labyrinth itself is made entirely of bamboo.
