About
They extend underground for about 200 square meters, Below the buildings D'Acugna and fats, which face onto Via Antonietta De Pace. Our Gallipoli are the property of the Association Gallipoli Nostra, which in 1988 had them fully restored and opened to the public use. Inside were reconstructed models of the eighteenth century, some presses Calabrese (two large screws). Originals are, however, the press Genovese (a single screw) and a few presses of the nineteenth century. The visit is particularly challenging with the help of expert guides, who make known to the visitor the techniques and phases of olive oil, thus reliving significant moments in history and local culture, as well as in times when for food oil was marketed primarily for industrial uses (in the carding of wool - especially so required by Paesidel Northern Europe, Sweden and England in the head) and for public and private lighting.

On a night trip to Gallipoli we included the visit to this interesting place. It definitely worth yhe the visit. We went to this underground olive press mill to discover its history. They talked about the history and all the info about it. Cheap 2 euros ticket, nice experience.

Interesting little museum to learn more about the history of olive oil used in oil lamps. Audio in different languages available. Short, cheap and good to learn from the history of Gallipoli

Well worth a visit to see how olive oil was made and understand some of its history plus it’s importance to the economy of Italy. The conditions for the workers and their animals was horrendous.

You have to experience this cellar if you are an olive oil aficionado. The mill and machinery could almost start to the shouts of the sailors who were walking the cobblestone paths above it transporters to the finest oils!

Anyone might think that a museum about olive oil would be boring, but this is exactly the opposite. A short 15 minute visit is all it takes and only €1.50. Informative commentary in English (there is a continuous commentary in different languages so you may have to wait a few minutes for English) which gives an interesting and enlightening story of the presses and olive oil.

What a beauty. If you don't visit it you cannot say you visited Gallipoli. The italian guide told us all the story of this beautiful ancient old oil Mill. We've been told of the history of Gallipoli, the importance that the oil had for the city. The story of the place is very peculiar and we really have to thank the people who fought to bring this oli mill back to its glory.
The admission fee is ridiculously cheap, it really worth the visit.
What an incredible fascinating place.

The museum does a good job of sharing the lives and work of people in the olive oil producing industry in times past. It is well worth a visit!

Pocket hole of history easy consumed by the provision of written and voiced guides in several languages including English. Really well laid out and extremely interesting portrayal of local oil production and export along with its use throughout the ages. Well worth a look
