Discovering the local culture accompanied by the buzzing of bees

What it is and where it is
It is always good to stay in touch with old crafts, or to find them again if they have been lost. This is easier in villages that, by their very nature, are more connected to the land and traditions. Terre Roveresche had to come to terms with an important legacy of the past, eventually deciding to make it a museum. As in other museums of this kind, there is no shortage of agricultural tools and farming life, but there is one aspect that is treated with special care, an activity, indeed two, that particularly marked the economy of this land.
Why it is special
The very protagonists of these activities become exceptional narrators in the telling of Terre Roveresche's story: bees and silkworms. Their breeding and the processing of honey and silk were very important to these places, which is why they deserved a special place in the museum, with the tools and materials related to this type of work. Not to mention that there is so much talk about the importance of bees for our very survival, it would really be a shame to miss the opportunity to get to know them a little better, wouldn't it?
Not to be missed
Since the museum is interested in the local community's relationship with history and the environment, it is unthinkable that the visit would not only include a section devoted to medicinal herbs and herbarium building, but also a well-kept educational garden. If we thought about how many properties field herbs have that we no longer know about, our heads would spin. Luckily, with a little help, we can browse through the garden and the explanatory panels and catch up on some memory. Your next nature walk will be the ultimate test: how many herbs can you recognize?
A bit of history
Bachiculture is a practice closely connected to the rural and sharecropping civilization that affected the territory of the province of Pesaro Urbino until the mid-1950s.
Curiosities
The culture of a community and the influence of the environment on it are also expressed through art. Here then, inside MuSA it is possible to visit the Permanent Collection of Contemporary Art curated by Maurizio Cesarini.
