Beschreibung
The Exhibition of Ancient Crafts and Rural Life, next to 'Casa Nuova' farmhouse in Assisi, near Perugia, thanks to the Fortini family and their passion for ancient things, especially related to the rural world and craft of Umbria (Italy). A passion that, in 30 years, made it possible to gather and collect more than 3000 pieces.
The exhibition brings together objects by type and function, thus creating various thematic sections: some reconstruct the ancient crafts, others are reviving the atmosphere of labour and peasant houses, with all their accompanying objects of all kinds made by hand. Especially interesting is the reconstruction of an old classroom beginning of 1900, whit folders, books, desks, pens and ink.
The visits, by appointment, are open to all, especially to schools of all levels.
