The MACA in Acri is an incredible museum - and we've been to many, this remains one of our family favorites. The main purpose is to trace the life and works of Acri 'local boy' Silvo Vigliaturo from his first childhood sketches to majors works displayed all over the world. The layout of the museum is superb and you can really see how his work develops over his lifetime. The museum staff is so generous with their time - Massimo even gave our family a tour (we worked through google translate and our shared Spanish/French - because most of the museum is not in English). If you are in the area, really you cannot miss this incredible (and free!) museum. We were in the area for a wedding, and ended up staying in an apartment in Acri...it's a lovely little town on it's own. Not a touristy place, a 'real' place. I would recommend trying to park down below and walk up to the museum - the roads are windy and tight. We didn't drive up to the museum.

Went there with 3 kids (5 and 3 year old twins). We all enjoyed a lot of the tour packed with history and details of how to make liquorice products. We bought a few souvenirs after the tour. Worth a visit!

Il nostro obiettivo è fornire un modello alternativo alla fruizione del patrimonio storico culturale. Il punto di partenza del nostro progetto è il borgo antico di Morano Calabro, ma la nostra vocazione è fornire un modello funzionale esportabile in qualsiasi contesto dove l’abbandono e la migrazione rischiano di sancire la fine di intere comunità delle aree interne. Diffondendo una nuova cultura dell’ambiente e dell’ospitalità, è possibile avviare la rinascita dei borghi come sta avvenendo nel caso del Nibbio, luogo dove l’incontro tra persone assume valenza primaria e il , inteso anche come metafora della vita, torna ad assumere la sua centralità.

The Museo Naturalistico was the best 4 euro we spent in Italy. An amazing private museum established by Nicola Bloise, initially to education local children. There is no English signage but he gave us a personal tour using google translate. It is in a lovely part of a lovely un-touristy town in an un-touristy region and has a cafe attached. It is found at the base of the Norman Castle which has also been carefully prepared for the casual passing tourist.
