ETHNOGRAPHIC MUSEUM

This museal structure is managed by the Archeologic Group of Bruscoli, cultural association born in 1989 with the direct intention of dating and studying the historical events of this settlement and of the valleys of the district of the nearby Futa Pass.

The circuit of the museum is divided in three different sections. The first one dedicated to the “geo-archeologichal traces”,where are collected many objects found during digging campaign patroned bythe Direzione della Soprintendenza Archeologicafor the Tuscany.
These investigations were executed along the pavements of the ancient principal routes and also on therests of the Medieval castle, belonged to the count Alberti di Bruscoli.
The second one enters the deal of “uses and habits of the country civilization”, in which it’s possible to look at tools and utensils of different kinds, used by our grandfathers, and also reconstructions of rural and artisanal environments, such as the interior of a kitchen and the cobbler and farrier shops.
Then, the third section includes the “war residues of the second world conflict”. Here it’s possible to admire weapons, ammos, uniforms, furnishing and military equipment, always strictly connectedto the local presence of the front constituted by the Gothic Line, which, for an entire winter, cut in two enemy areas ourAppennine from Rimini up to Liguria.
