Sommariva Museum "Oil Civilization"

The Somariva Museum "Oil Civilizaztion" strongly desired by the Sommariva Family, is entirely dedicated to the civilization of the oil and allows to see all the history of one of the oldest and most important works of the Liguria region. After the expansion works completed in 2010, the Museum went from 200 to 400 square meters and is now connected to the Sommariva Oil Mill through an underground tunnel, thus creating a single space entirely dedicated to the world of oil and its production.

 

It contains all the history of the oil civilization, but also a lot of contemporary art from painting, passing through sculpture to photography; in fact, in these rooms the Sommariva Family offers artists the opportunity to exhibit their works. Moreover many local realities present their own events, their projects in the Oil Civilization Museum and great writers bring their masterpieces here.

The museum has hosted the likes of Moni Ovadia, Federico Moccia, Antonio Ricci, Carlo Denei and Vittorio Sgarbi.
