Museum of Agricultural Culture and Traditions
Although it may seem strange to see a fully restored and equipped farmhouse museum in a tiny principality perched on a cliff's edge, San Marino is proud of the long agricultural history. Montecchio's House of Fabrica is one of the oldest patronal houses, dating back to at least the mid-1700s. Museum of Agricultural Culture and Traditions, which has been restored to its original state and is equipped to replicate the daily lives of farm families in the communities surrounding Mount Titano, aims to conserve some of the rural traditions and practices. This structure has been returned to the community as a result of extensive restoration and repairs that have always preserved the building's historic features.
With the joint efforts of the State Secretary for Territory, Environment, and Agriculture, the Town Castle Council, and the Committee of the Territory of San Marino, the farm-house has been recovered after many years of neglect, with the goal of opening it to the public. Domestic tools, copper pots, coal-heated flat-irons, a loom, cradle, and other vintage furniture are displayed alongside farm tools such as sickles and hoes in Museum of Agricultural Culture and Traditions.
