The pre-industrial craft business
Description
The research carried out to date testifies that the mill and sawmill were already integrated into the economic and social environment of the Aino fraction before 1800. Since 1801, when father Gioan Antonio Marchesi rented "the two mills for the agreed sum of four measures of wheat per day", the artisan complex will be associated for almost a century with the image of this Puschlaver and that of the son of the same name: artisans full of resources and with a spirit of innovation that distinguishes them as predecessors of modern times.
How the power of water was used in the pre-industrial age can be experienced in the Mulino Aino. In this craft plant, a forge, a mill and a sawmill are driven by the same turbine and process grain into flour, logs into boards and metal into utensils. Visit the Mulino Aino and travel back in time to the 18th century.
