Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox earthquake

On 23 October 1907 a magnitude 5.9 earthquake struck Calabria, at a depth of 33.0 km. in the area of Gerace-Siderno, on the southeast coast of Calabria. The event caused 167 deaths and major damage.[1]

The epicentral area included only one town (Ferruzzano), where many houses collapsed almost completely, and 158 persons, or 8% of its population, were killed.[1] Ferruzano had been hit as well in the 1905 Calabria earthquake.[2]

Almost a month later, on 17 November 1907, the area of Ferruzzano, Brancaleone and Bianco was hit again.[3] On 23 January 1908 the area was hit again by an earthquake.[4] People had to camp in the fields or in nearby subterranean grottos.[3][4] In Ferruzzano new houses built after the earthquakes of 1905 and 1907 resisted the shocks of the 1908 Messina earthquake.[5]
