Roccagorga With your hands

EtnoMuseo Monti Lepini, Roccagorga

Roccagorga

Roccagorga's museum is not cases and labels. It is a single staged walk-through, built by the village's own craftsmen out of what people here actually remember about their own century.

How the day goes

  1. Rooms made to be walked into rather than looked at from a rope.
  2. The material underneath is field research: what was said in this village, in its own words.
  3. Groups can book outside the usual hours, which is often the only way to get in.

The opening times move around here — call before you drive up into the Lepini for it.
