About Nello Cassata Ethnohistory Museum
The Nello Cassata Ethnohistory Museum (Italian: Museo etnostorico Nello Cassata) is a museum located in Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto, Sicily, Italy. It stands on an area of 1,500 square meters (0.37 acres) which includes a two-floor manor house (the family's country residence) dating back to the late 19th century.
The building has an old barrel-vaulted palmento (a building for wine pressing) on the ground floor, a front door with relief decorations depicting scenes of rural life, an atrium paved in local stone, nineteenth-century lights set in the midst of a typical Sicilian garden. The museum is run by the "Oikos" European Institute of Ethnology, a non-profit organization with about thirty employees.
