Museums with fun!

Among the museums of the "Museum Network", many of them offer workshops and educational tours.

One of these is located in Grezzano, just outside Borgo San Lorenzo (about 5 km by car): Casa d'Erci is an ancient farmhouse that now houses a museum that preserves a consistent and characteristic collection of documentary material of the old rural world of Mugello; this museum shows both the life of the fields and how the home was managed. Families can have picnics in the garden around and book workshops where children and adults can for a day, wear the robes of pizza makers and bakers, discovering the art of dough and baking wood oven.

Visiting the small village of Sant'Agata, we immediately realize that time seems to have stopped. Next to the wonderful romanesque church, families can discover archaeology while having fun in the Documentation Centre: the exhibition of many archaeological finds of Mugello ends with a green space with a full-scale reconstruction of a prehistoric village. Then it is possible to continue the visit in the historic centre of this small village, and then get to the Leprino Museum, where you can fins moving characters and cardboard buildings that will take you back into an enchanted world.

Moreover, you can reach Badia di Moscheta in the municipality of Firenzuola by car. Here, in addition to the excursions and riding activities, the Apennine Historical Museum awaits families for an immersion in the flora and fauna of the Alto Mugello.

But the activities do not end here ! During your visit, you can get to know the museums actively thanks to the Activity Book for children: booklets designed to involve young visitors and their families along the exhibition path of the Museum. The visit becomes so participatory: games, observation exercises and practical activities are proposed during the exploration of the museum halls, to turn the classic visit into an unforgettable activity!
