Also this year the Tonnara Museum of Stintino will open on Easter and Easter Monday, giving the possibility to those who decide to spend the two festive days in the seaside village, to be able to immerse themselves in an ancient history, between nature, culture and traditions.

In fact, visiting the museum and its collections means getting involved in the audiovisual story that tells of shoals of fish that follow the currents of the Mediterranean, of sea crews that await their arrival, and of a system of nets that intercept their passage.

Through the description of the traditional tuna fishing method, practiced in the Gulf of Asinara until the last century, the lives of the people who fished and worked the tuna with effort and tenacity are outlined and the story of Stintino is told, so closely linked to that of the Tonnara Saline. The museum will be open from 11 to 13 and from 15:30 to 19 and, to better welcome visitors, an engaging guided tour will be offered to discover the installation dedicated to figurative art that interprets the world of the Tonnara.

The works that make up the museum's artistic collection have as their leitmotif the slaughter ritual, the last act of the eternal challenge between man and nature, rendered with intensity by the artists who have transferred the matured artistic language and the intimate vision of the destiny towards which every human being is projected. The Museum exhibits the works of important local artists and not only, including Ausonio Tanda, Stanis Dessy, Francesco Becciu, Vittorio Calvi, Salvatore Fara, Nani Tedeschi, Paola Dessy, Elio Pulli, Franco Carenti, Valerio Mazzanti, Angelo Maggi , Renato Fancellu.
