Excellent tour but must email in advance to check your times. Only 12€ for the tour with 4 different olive oils to taste. Very informative tour and we learnt a lot about olive trees dating back to the Roman times and olive oil making. There is a cave where the original olive presses live. This is a family run olive farm and they have A lot of passion about their olives and trees. Fantastic must see place.

La prima esperienza museale in Puglia legata al pane, un viaggio pluri-sensoriale e multimediale. Non un museo-mausoleo, ma un vero e proprio "luogo dell'anima", un'opera che prende vita in un percorso che parte dall'interno di un forno antico del Trecento, dove nel 1956 ebbe origine una parte importante della storia del Pane di Altamura Dop attraverso la tecnica del giovanissimo Vito Forte.
