The Sommariva "Oil Civilization" Museum , strongly desired by the Sommariva family , is entirely dedicated to the oil civilization and allows you to see the whole history of one of the oldest and most important works in the Liguria region. After the extension works completed in 2010, the Museum has increased from 200 to 400 square meters and is now connected via an underground tunnel to the Sommariva Oil Mill , thus creating a single space entirely dedicated to the world of oil and its production.
