Ecomuseum of chair-makers and straw-makers, Azeglio (TO)
The nucleus of the ecomuseum consists of the “La cadrega fiurija” exhibition area, in which four rooms can be visited where a typical Azegliese house has been rebuilt, with the carpentry workshop and a corner for hay packing.
Also on display are chairs, stools, sofas along with tools, work devices and documentary material.
This site is connected to the “sentiero della lesca”: a nature trail in the humid areas of the forest from which chair-stands and straw-spreaders drew wood and marsh grass to make the artefacts.
