Labarinto della Masone, Bamboo maze and arts complex in Fontanellato, Italy

Labirinto della Masone is a bamboo maze in Fontanellato, near Parma, built by publisher Franco Maria Ricci on a suggestion from Jorge Luis Borges. It covers about eight hectares and was the largest permanent labyrinth in the world when completed; since 2018 it has been the largest made of bamboo. Adjoining it are a museum of Ricci's art collection and Bodoni typography holdings, a gallery of his graphic design, the publishing house archive, exhibition halls, a restaurant and a café.

Franco Maria Ricci (1937–2020), an art publisher and designer, built the labyrinth on the suggestion of his close friend Jorge Luis Borges. Constructed entirely of bamboo, it opened in 2015 and was then the largest permanent labyrinth in the world at about eight hectares. In 2018 it lost that title to the Yancheng Dafeng Dream Maze in Jiangsu, China, but remains the largest bamboo labyrinth.

The name Masone comes from the district that hosts the labyrinth. The site also holds the archive of Franco Maria Ricci's publishing house and a collection of Giambattista Bodoni's typographical holdings, displayed alongside temporary exhibitions, concerts and conference facilities.

The complex is open daily except Tuesdays and features a restaurant, café, and conference facilities throughout the grounds. Visitors should allow several hours to explore the full extent of the pathways, as the labyrinth covers a large area and navigation takes time.

The labyrinth is designed in a star shape that creates a distinctive pattern when viewed from above. The Bodoni typography collection housed here is among the largest of its kind and draws type enthusiasts from around the world.
