About the museum
The Museo della Civiltà Contadina “Rodolfo e Luigi Sessa” in Mirabello is both a physical museum, with objects displayed in the rooms of the Palazzo Sessa-Aldrovandi, and a virtual museum that presents the traditions on the website. The collection grows thanks to contributions from the local population.
The sections cover the area, the people, the tools and the palazzo; the website also offers an audio guide, an interactive map and a catalogue. Themes documented include dialect, folk tales, proverbs, songs, games, crafts and knowledge of herbs. Local history includes the rivers, the old roads, the occupation during the Second World War, the arrival of the Allies in April 1945 and the 2012 earthquake.
