Discover and appreciate the essence of what has been called the ‘Prince of salami’ as well as the territory and the community that created it, from the quality of the raw ingredients to the know-how accumulated over time.
Info & Booking
With over 800 years of history, the Salame di Felino belongs to protected local foods of the Parma territory, bearing the “IGP” seal (Protected Geographical Indication). Given the importance of this product for the territory and its economy, and its cultural significance ( the Felino salami was served at the table of the Farnese family), it seemed only natural to give the Salame Felino its own museum inside the food museum circuit.
The Felino Salame Museum invites you to discover and appreciate the essence of what has been called the ‘Prince of salami’ as well as the territory and the community that created it, from the quality of the raw ingredients to the know-how accumulated over time.
The food museums of the province of Parma celebrate the delicious and abundant food products of the region – Parmesan cheese, pasta, canned tomatoes, wine, Salami, and Prosciutto di Parma. An experience for all senses and tastes, unforgettable and unique.
