Chiaramonte Gulfi Olive Oil Museum

The museum is housed in the lower floors of the Montesano Palace, in seven rooms, with barrel vaults; in these spaces there are successive tools of olive oil extraction technology. A press from 1614, a stone mill, jars, oil measuring instruments, and a hundred and a hundred various utensils and equipment. Common use objects and ingenious devices, specific to rural images and environments.

The heart of the ancient farming civilization is depicted, in that mythical time of memory that unfolds before the visitor with its ingeniousness and its miseries.
