Centro Comunale d'Arte e Cultura Villa Muscas

Muscas Villa, which houses the Centro della Cultura contadina, and is home to a rich museum and rooms used for meetings and conferences, was built in different periods with different construction techniques, on a plant-influenced monastic

The structure is a center of preservation of objects and equipment related to the rural Sardinian dissemination through events that people want to engage in a process of knowledge of the issues related to agricultural production, and a venue for other cultural activities

The museum features agricultural implements and machinery and a collection of fine handmade tools once used in Sardinian country houses. Villa Muscas also houses a remarkable stock of vintage wines (the enoteca), featuring more than 800 bottles of Sardinian wine

The museum is divided into three levels: courtyard, cloister, rooms on the first floor. The courtyard contains significant machines that represent the traditional and industrial production of Sardinia. The ground floor is divided into six rooms, containing machinery and objects used for the cultivation of the land, for processing and measurement of agricultural products. The cloister is surrounded by three circles, two of them to the vinification and distillation; the ultimate environment offers a large collection of harness and tools for working animals
