"The Traces of Graubünden's Confectioners in Destination Countries" The history of Graubünden's confectioners has already been extensively studied from the perspective of migrants. The memory of this past is still alive in our country today, not least because the traces of this history are still clearly visible in some villages, including Poschiavo. The patrician houses of the 19th century and the economic initiatives financed by immigrants, which led the valley to a revival, testify to the pioneering spirit of those who succeeded abroad. But what did the activity of pastry chefs abroad lead to? This part of history is still little studied. What traces did Graubünden pastry chefs leave behind in the many European cities? And how did people in the countries of emigration view the activities of Graubünden pastry chefs? The Confectioners 2025 conference in Poschiavo will explore these questions. For this, four experts from Spain, Poland, England and France have been invited and will present the results of their research from their perspective. A dialogue with local people who have studied in depth the lives of Graubünden's pastry chefs is also planned. The language of the conference is Italian. Presentations in English and French will be simultaneously translated into Italian in the hall.
