Museo dell’identità dell’alta Garfagnana Olinto Cammelli

Museo dell’identità dell’alta Garfagnana Olinto Cammelli, Regional history museum in Minucciano, Italy.

The Museo dell'identità dell'Alta Garfagnana "Olimpio Cammelli" occupies the former canonica beside the Chiesa Vecchia on Colle di Casa in Gorfigliano, comune of Minucciano. Its rooms hold over 3,000 objects from the 19th and early 20th centuries: tools of the riquadratore, minatore, fochino, filista, tecchiaiolo and lizzatore from the marble quarries, farm and chestnut-processing machinery, and two rooms on smiths, knife-grinders, cobblers, shepherds and winemaking.

In 1983, parish priest Don Alberto Bartolomei began recovering the abandoned Chiesa Vecchia and its rectory on Colle di Casa, where a medieval castle and the old village of Gorfigliano once stood. Volunteers worked for 28 years. The museum opened on 16 May 2009, named after volunteer leader Olimpio Cammelli, whose widow Emma Orsi donated his roughly 1,000-object collection.

The museum's name honours Olimpio Cammelli, a volunteer leader whose roughly 1,000 collected pieces were donated by his widow Emma Orsi to the Associazione Culturale Paese Vecchio. Exhibits document the quarrymen's specialisations — riquadratore, minatore, fochino, filista, tecchiaiolo, lizzatore — alongside farming, chestnut and hemp working, and the trades of blacksmith, knife-grinder and shoemaker.

The museum sits on a hilltop next to a historic church and provides views over a large area of the region. Regular opening hours are limited to specific seasons, so planning ahead is recommended for your visit.

The museum is named after Olimpio Cammelli, a volunteer leader who gathered about 1,000 objects; after his death his wife Emma Orsi gave the collection to the Associazione Culturale Paese Vecchio, and the Comune di Minucciano hosted it. It opened on 16 May 2009 and now displays over 3,000 pieces.
