[HIGHLIGHTS] MuTart, the museum dedicated to truffles, is born in San Miniato

San Miniato and the 29 municipalities between the provinces of Pisa and Florence is a generous treasure chest, which produces truffles twelve months a year. Inside you know all the secrets of the precious delicacy and the tradition of hunting and extraction, which has been proclaimed a UNESCO heritage site for some years.

The museum based in via IV Novembre 20 is available to the citizens and to the many tourists and pilgrims who flock to San Miniati all year round to enjoy its beauties. The MuTart was made possible thanks to the contribution of the Tuscany Region and the North West TuscANY Chamber of Commerce, who wanted to convincingly support the idea of the San MiniacoPromozione Foundation, the organization that every year in November organizes the eagerly awaited Sanminiato White Truffle Market Exhibition. The most prized one, the white Tuber Magnatum Pico, was found in 1954 by Arturo Gallerin and donated to the President of the United States Eisenhower.
