The rich collection of Umberto Zaffina, set up in two old adjoining houses, preserves household utensils and work tools belonging to local artisans and farmers working up to 1940. The setup was designed to recreate, in architectural spaces that have remained almost unchanged, the activities of the carpenter, blacksmith, cooper, shoemaker, mason, and barber. Also interesting are the kitchen, dining, and bedroom areas where, among other objects, are displayed: two stone molds for sweets, some clay jug holders for the hearth, sacred pictures, and other rarities.
