I was really amazed with the exhibits in the museum, such variety and focus on the history of the region. The mosaics are incredible and a must to see the exhibit of the finds in Domus di Chirurgo, entrance fee includes the Domus site nearby. Staff were very helpful.

Sulphur’s extraction in Perticara was already practiced since pre-Etruscan times, but the first written sources are dated from the age of Romans. As gunpowder was developed, a new and deeper exploration of our subsoil started up. As an important Malatesta’s domain, Perticara and the other villages have been utilized for the production of this indispensable new war instrument. With the following industrial revolution, numerous societies tried to manage the mining activity, but only in 1917 as the Montecatini arrived, they started up the most important industry in our area, becoming then the largest sulphur mine in Europe. Thousands of men burrowed tens of kilometres of galleries and the rhythm of sulphur production scanned the everyday life of many generations, until the dramatic closure of the mine in 1964. The museum was opened in 1970 as a sign of a will to preserve our mining memento, directly from the miners. Since 2002 is located in the ex sulphurous yard buildings “Certino".
