The "Anna Vieceli" Regional Museum of Man in Cansiglio and Cimbrian Ethnographic and Culture Center (MUC), owned by Veneto Agriculture, collects documents and evidence of the presence of man in Cansiglio and his relationship with the plateau.

Inside, the activities and places of the presence of the prehistoric communities of nomadic hunters are illustrated. A section is dedicated to paleobotany and the findings of Palughetto which preserves the remains of the oldest conifers in Europe. The most conspicuous collection of the Museum offers some historical documents relating both to the Venetian domination which lasted almost four centuries (1420-1797), and to the presence of the Cimbri ethnic linguistic minority, with panels and cards on forestry activities, the preparation of coal and processing. of timber. There are numerous tools on display that were used to transform the beech trees of the centuries-old Cansiglio Forest into the famous oars that moved the great Venetian “galleys”.

The story of the arrival and life of the Cimbrian community, which arrived in Cansiglio at the end of the 18th century from Roana (Asiago plateau, VI), is told through the historical images of the villages, the faces of the "Cimbri boxers", the tools used once and still today for the processing of wood and some tools produced by the Cimbri themselves such as the famous "scatoi", circular containers for storing cheese and food.

A mezzanine in the attic also houses a library dedicated to the Cimbrian population commissioned and organized by the Cimbri del Cansiglio cultural association.

If you happen to stop here, it is worth a visit, in my opinion. Clearly it is a minimal museum, but it is also moving, and at the same time archaic. For history buffs!

For history buffs, a jump to make, perhaps even to rest your legs in the middle of a tour of the Cansiglio
