Museo della Civiltà Contadina Il Cambonino Vecchio

Cremona (CR)
included
Working the fields, feeding the cattle, raising children with the simple things of the past. Immerse yourself in the traditions of rural life and its stories.

The 'Cambonino vecchio' farmstead houses the Museum of Rural Civilisation.
Once through the door, you will take a dip into the past to rediscover a not too distant world in which our roots lie.
You can walk in the farmyard, enter the farmer's house set up with everyday tools, household objects and children's toys; walk in the old stable where work items related to animal husbandry are displayed, or imagine doing laundry in the 'bügadéera'.
In the cellar, you will see how wine was prepared and stored, while under the barchessali you can admire carts and farm machinery; before leaving, don't forget to visit the small oratory, a valuable element of this small farmstead.
The role of this museum is to be valued in order not to forget our origins, history and traditions. Here one can still breathe in the evidence of rural life. Each room tells a story.
