MUSARB is the museum of Arbëreshe culture that offers visitors an immersive experience to discover the unique cultural identity of Piana degli Albanesi.
This museum is a window on the history of Piana degli Albanesi from its foundation to the most recent events such as the Portella della Ginestra massacre.
In the museum it is possible to visit the section of the traditional costume of Piana degli Albanesi. The collection is based on the female costumes divided into daily and gala costumes, one of which is complete with accessories that make it suitable for a wedding. These two costumes are entirely hand-embroidered in gold on silk and the gold embroidery is so rich that the women who wear these costumes are called "dressed in the sun".
The visit itinerary includes the section dedicated to icons, the territory, the peasant civilization and the naturalistic heritage, also through an ostensive herbarium with the tree species found in the Oriented Nature Reserve "Serre della Pizzuta".
