Founded in 1979 by the Association Vallivo Museum of Valfurva and by Maestro Mario Testorelli, the ethnographic museum tells the story, culture, traditions, and knowledge of the valley through an installation that recreates real environments and atmospheres.
The museum path winds through domestic spaces (the room and the kitchen) and areas dedicated to the work of artisans: carpenters, shoemakers, weavers, blacksmiths; other sections describe household, agricultural, and pastoral activities.
Of great appeal is the mill, operational, for grinding rye and the wood-fired oven where bread is baked.
The life of the valley and its inhabitants is evoked by objects collected in the sections dedicated to costume, school, devotion, mountains and mountaineering, and World War I.
