Mineral Museum of Brosso

The museum is located between the Ca’dMartolo building, where there are 5 exhibit sectors: the place (maps and photographs), man (photographs), the history (documents), the material (minerals), the equipment (tools from different eras). It is of particular interest to visit the metallurgical sites along the stream Assa, where it is possible to observe testimonies of the local metal processing technologies: “low fire” or “brossasca”. There are numerous rosting ovens, washing vats, forges, mechanical pestles visible that made it possible to obtain iron without having to smelt the cast iron.
