Interactive museum devoted to the Valley of the Mills and the art of milling, in a palace in the centre of Casaletto Spartano.

The M.A.C.IN.A., Casaletto's Interactive Environmental Water Museum, occupies Palazzo Petrosino, in the heart of the village. It is devoted to the Valley of the Mills and the ancient art of milling, which for centuries made use of the power of water here.The tour is very modern: touch walls to leaf through like a book, interactive floors recreating the setting of the mills, multimedia stations and sensory rooms designed to be accessible to all. It currently appears to be closed, but we like the idea of a museum that prepares you for excursions in the valley and towards the Capello waterfalls. We recommend checking whether it has reopened.
