The
Museum of Ceramics in Montelupo
Since
earliest times the valley of the river
Arno has been famous for its clayey
ground and the town Montelupo,
close to Florence, made an art out
of this feature: the art of ceramic.
Arianna & Friends organizes guided
visits to the Museum of Ceramics,
where you will discover the history
of pottery from its origins to present
production and decoration. The
wonderful majolicaware of Montelupo
has got always more famous and has
invaded the markets of the biggest
Mediterranean towns over the past
centuries. Since the discovery of
America the Montelupo production has
taken even the Atlantic trade routes.
Still today this little medieval village
is the place where world famous hand-painted
terracottas, ceramics and majolicas
are created.
