CantinArte Oil Museum

The Olive Oil Museum of CantinArte is a building composed of several rooms and is a story of how olives were transformed into extra virgin olive oil with only the strength of donkeys and the ingenuity of men. This place, recognized in 2008 by the Ente Fondo Ambiente Italiano as a valuable place of industrial archaeology, is an ancient factory, an ideal place for those seeking to learn more about the origins of peasants and its work cycles. It is a structure that houses artifacts of other times, such as the trapetum oleario of Roman times, and shows all the methods of conservation that have followed over the years, from jars to milk.
