The purpose of the museum is to stage the collective culture, work and daily life in the rural culture of this side of montagna.Cinque salt, the main one dedicated to working copper, thriving local craft, developed over the past two centuries. The second room contains the path to the weaving maid, the creation of the yarn (flax, hemp, wool) until the completion of the fabric, as well as the necessary tools, including a range of fabrics collected over the years depending on their daily use of all distinct "frontal" tissue typical of this side, rather heavy, multi-colored wool, the women wore tied on the sides to escape the cold winter days The other rooms are devoted to "old" professions, like the tailor and the shoemaker and finally a room dedicated to the grain and feed. The museum often hosts school groups, organizing workshops on copper processing and weaving, directly involving children.
Inside the museum you can visit the permanent exhibition of the painter "naive" Scipione Annunziata, an artist who lives and works in the country of Azzi (two kilometers away from drugs). The small country, thanks to the presence of Mrs. Annunziata has joined the network of country paintings, with dozens of murals of famous Italian authors overlook one of the walls of houses.
