Museum of Sacred Vestments and Craft Tools of Forino
- Visit: about 1 h 30 min
Museum with sacred vestments from the churches of Forino, including 16th-century silk garments, and objects from artisan life.
This small museum gathers the sacred vestments from the churches of Forino. We are struck by the 16th-century clerical robes, almost all in silk, together with fine fabrics, gold embroidery and lace that tell the story of the town's old religious traditions.One section is devoted to local crafts, with farming implements and old household tools. We recommend the visit to discover the customs and traditions of the Forino community in a single stop, between sacred art and everyday life of the past.
