Ethnographic Museum Casa Dona Maxima, San Gavino Monreale

Casa Dona Maxima in San Gavino Monreale takes its name from the last owner, Donna Massima Orrù, who belongs to the family of the Orrù counts, locally landed nobility. The construction dates back to the mid-16th century, by the will of the Spanish feudal lords of Quirra, who extended their possessions up to the Arburese area. The museum opened in 1994 preserves and recalls traditions, customs and traditions of the Sangavinese past. © Municipality San Gavino Monreale/unknown author
