Fuelled with wine and cheese we continued on our merry way, next stop Museo Storica delle Giostra , a museum on the history of the amusement park!
Really an amazing story, this tiny rural town of Bergantino was in bad shape with poverty, unemployment etc. Things hit rock bottom 1929 , a short while after this some locals hit upon the idea of making fun fair park rides , they say that now amusment park rides for the whole world are made in the area!
Some wonderful examples of working 'music boxes '
assorted mementos of fair grounds
