The House of Water
Interactive Museum
Opened in 2016, it is located in Fondo's historic "Giò a l'Aca" neighborhood, where begin the walk to Smeraldo Lake and the guided tours in the Rio Sass Canyon. The House of Water is a small museum with six rooms that take visitors on a journey with water to enhance the territory and help protect its environmental and cultural heritage.
On the ground floor it is connected with the old Bertagnolli Mill (open from spring to autumn) where the irrigation ditch water still moves the blades of the old wheel that set the millstones in motion.
