Truffle Museum (Fragno)

The Truffle Museum is situated in Calestano, within the historic Town Hall premises in the building’s basement, and offers guided tours.

A visit to the Truffle Museum is not only educational, but also fun and highly interactive. Truffles have to be sought out and are not easily found. For this reason, various ‘hidden’ elements have been incorporated into the museum tour, which visitors are invited to locate using an ‘encrypted map’, thereby stimulating their curiosity and encouraging them to take part in a real truffle hunt within the museum.

The museum is open on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays from 24 May to 8 December, with split opening hours: 10.00–13.00 and 15.00–18.00.

From 9 December
*Closed
