Laboratorio della Cola Cola - La Casa della Cola Cola, Gravina in Puglia

The family tradition is felt throughout the house-museum; the sixth generation nephew showed us all the history and the typicality of the symbolic craftsmanship of Gravina, very kind and helpful. The house can be visited with a ticket that if you buy an artisanal product you don't pay. Obviously, the artisanal memory of these works could not be bought ... a beautiful whistle, a magnet that demonstrates the journey (obviously) and a crib all rigorously handmade. A visit not to be missed as it is a typical place that represents Gravina!

The museum is the home of the ancestors who invented cola cola, which for those unfamiliar with it is the symbol of Gravina or a hand-made whistle that represents the cola cola (magpie thief). Inside there are artifacts created by past generations of this family of artisans and various relics from past eras (from the end of 1800). The owner, who is the current last "heir" of the family business who together with his uncle also manage a shop for the sale of this "unique" artifact of its kind, will be happy to guide you in describing the characteristics and the stories that run in this beautiful corner of Puglia.
