Casa di u Mele
About This Museum
Tucked away on a quiet country road in Murzo, Casa di u Mele isn't your typical museum; it's a heartfelt tribute to the soul of rural Corsica. You step inside and are immediately wrapped in the scent of old wood and the profound quiet of a life lived close to the land. The space feels less like a curated exhibit and more like walking right into your great-grandparents' home, where every object has a story worn into its surface. It’s an intimate, almost humbling experience that connects you directly to the island's past.
Collection Highlights
The true stars here are the beautifully preserved tools of traditional agriculture and daily life—think heavy wooden olive presses, hand-forged scythes, and rustic kitchenware blackened by generations of use. A collection of sepia-toned family photographs, their subjects' faces etched with character, feels particularly poignant.
Visitor Information
It's small, so you don't need more than an hour, but that hour is pure magic. Just head for the D23 road in Murzo and look for the unassuming stone building—finding it feels like discovering a secret.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a classic, weathered Corsican stone house with shutters the color of the sky, it blends so perfectly into the landscape you might almost miss it.
