Museum of Tomato

The Museum of Tomato occupies seven exhibition halls within the west wing of Corte di Giarola, displaying machinery, artifacts, and documentation about tomato production.

The museum opened in September 2010 following initiatives by the Comitato Promotore dei Musei del Cibo, established in 2001 to preserve food heritage.

Seven dedicated sections present the complete story of tomato cultivation, industrial processing, and its influence on Italian gastronomy through historical photographs.

Located at Strada Giarola 11, the museum welcomes visitors on Saturdays and Sundays from 10:00 to 18:00, offering guided tours in English and Italian.

The facility shares its medieval rural court building with the Pasta Museum, creating a comprehensive food heritage experience in the Parma region.
