Located inside what were the primary schools of the Cansiglio Forest, active until the 60s, it was inaugurated on August 18, 1984 and is located in Pian Osteria. Currently the Museum is spread over two floors and offers a complete overview of the human presence in Cansiglio from Prehistory to the present day, highlighting how the current geographical and cultural structure is the result of a continuous and lasting interaction between ecological and anthropogenic factors.
The exhibition space is divided into several sections, which can be visited ideally following a chronological path that winds between the ground floor and the rooms on the first floor: In particular, you can visit part of the historical collection of documents relating to both the Venetian domination and the presence of the ethnic and linguistic minority of the Cimbri, with panels and cards on forest activities, carbonization and breeding.
The activities and places of presence of the prehistoric communities of nomadic hunters are also illustrated. A section is dedicated to the paleobotany and the finds of Palughetto that preserves the remains of the oldest conifers in Europe.
