The Thematic Areas of the Museum of Popular and Peasant Culture of Villastellone
Welcome to the Museum of Popular and Peasant Culture of Villastellone, a small treasure chest that preserves the memory of a world that we are trying not to forget. Here, every corner tells a story of life, work and traditions, transporting you on a journey into the past, where peasant culture was the protagonist.
Our Museum is not divided into rigid sections, but into thematic areas that invite you to immerse yourself in a unique experience, made up of objects that speak of a distant era. Each theme is an invitation to rediscover the crafts, habits and knowledge that have marked our past and built our history.
Let yourself be inspired by these silent stories and feel the past through the artifacts we preserve.
You will be able to see and try the objects in their functionality, but we suggest you also use your imagination… with the same poetry that you can feel in front of a nativity scene… Here, in this interpretation that we suggest, what is the common denominator? The work that passes through the hands, the result of a know-how and the child of always having to make do. Such dignity is the secret that these objects conceal.
