The Museum exhibits a unique collection that includes beehives, skeps, feeders, honey extractors, presses, wax sculptures, beekeeping magazines, stamps dedicated to bees and plenty of other material. There is also a rich bibliography on the subject: enthusiasts and students can consult books, trade magazines, historical documents and possibly request copies for study purposes.


Il Maglietto, which houses the Beekeeping Museum, is found close to the Scrivia torrent in the Merella hamlet: its is reached by taking the road for the cemetery of the small hamlet and following the directions for Ambiente Scrivia. The property, owned by the municipality, is situated in an area of community importance and special protection due to the considerable naturalistic interest and the presence of numerous animal and plant species.

Opening is only by appointment.
