Almalfi is a coastal town on the Amalfi Coast about an hour and a half from Sorrento<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Its white and yellow buildings crouch over the harbor. They greet visitors with shops and restaurants. Crowds come to explore the winding streets, back alleys, and the famous coast!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

However, through the busy main piazza<\/strong> and down a quiet street lies a museum resting on a corner<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>

The museum is a white flat-roofed building with a lot of paper. But underneath the museum, down a set of stairs, in a cold cave-like basement, lies the knowledge of how to hand-make it!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The Museo della Carta<\/strong><\/em> or Paper Museum<\/em>, shows visitors Amalfi\u2019s rich history of handmade paper<\/strong> (bambagina<\/em>). <\/span><\/p>

This process is through several machines that produce paper from cloth fibers.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

This practice has been around since the discovery of paper attributed to Ts\u2019ai Lun in 105 B.C.E.<\/span><\/p>

Amalfi\u2019s paper mill goes back to the 13th century<\/strong> when Nicola Milano, a veteran of papermills, worked when he was 13. <\/span><\/p>

Milano left the mill for technical school but returned in 1917 to replace his father who got called to arms in WWI. <\/span><\/p>

After this turbulent time, Milano succeeded in carrying on the family paper mills. <\/span><\/p>

However, he had to close the mills. <\/span><\/p>

This was due to poor road connections, making transport costs expensive. The last one closed in 1969. Milano donated the mill in 1971.<\/span><\/p>

The museum aims to preserve the art of paper making<\/strong> to keep handmade paper alive.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Inside the museum is a warm red-brown tile and off-white gift shop.<\/span><\/p>

Sunlight streams in from the windows, highlighting the shop’s oak shelves. These shelves hold different kinds of paper and calligraphy gifts. <\/span><\/p>

At the register is a worker selling tickets and packaging gifts. There is a sign for tickets and tours next to the worker. It reads:<\/span><\/p>

“General admission, explore the mill for yourself<\/em> (costs from 3,00 to 4,50 euros) or go on one of three guided tours”.<\/em><\/span><\/p>

  • The first guided tour is the VIP Handmade Paper Experience<\/strong>. <\/span><\/li><\/ul>

    The Handmade Paper Experience<\/em> is a tour without any other guests and gives a first-hand experience of creating paper<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>

    It is 12,00 to 15,00 \u20ac to go<\/strong>. It is a highly recommended experience. <\/span><\/p>

    • A second tour is a Guided Visit with a Hand Made Experience<\/strong>. <\/span><\/li><\/ul>

      This tour is not exclusive<\/strong> but includes participating in handmaking a sheet of paper. The visit is 6,00 to 7,00 \u20ac<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>

      • The final tour is the Amalfi Lemon and Paper Experience<\/strong>. <\/span><\/li><\/ul>

        This excursion starts with a bright leafy lemon garden. Handmade paper and IGP Lemons created a fun tour<\/strong> available from March 1st through October 30th.<\/span><\/p>

        This includes a guided tour of the IGP Lemon Garden and a guided tour of the paper museum. The tour is for guests who want to learn more about Amalfl\u2019s history and the lemons and paper that are a part of it<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>

        Despite the differences in these tours, guests can see the machines and processes of making paper. <\/span><\/p>

        But these tours help guests understand paper making (or lemon growing) and how Amalfi plays a part in it.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

        The soft light from outside streams into the cool underground cave.\u00a0<\/p>

        There is no echo of feet or words in this odd basement but the high ceilings leave enough room for taller guests. The rooms’ walls are rock.\u00a0<\/p>

        But the metal and wooden machines, and a tour guide, show guests the artisans who have been handmaking paper for years.<\/p>

        Amalfi was at the height of paper-making by the 13th century. Eleven mills opened and the coastal town became a booming innovative production center. The townspeople were thriving.<\/p>

        G<\/strong>enerations of paper makers kept the mills running<\/b>.<\/p>

        But this productive time did not happen overnight. It all started with a ban and a trade deal<\/strong>.<\/p>

        A century before the Amalfi paper production, Frederick II<\/strong> (the former king of Sicily) banned using handmade paper for notarial documents<\/strong>.<\/p>

        Frederick II believed it was less permanent than parchment.\u00a0<\/p>

        This ban was in Naples, Sorrento, and Amalfi. He urged people to continue to use parchment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

        However, Amalfi, in close contact with the eastern Mediterranean ports, continued to receive handmade paper. <\/span><\/p>

        It is possible that the Arabs imported the paper and the process of making it. The people of Amalfi were skillful in making paper and the ban became forgotten.<\/span><\/p>

        There were 16 mills in Amalfi by the end of the 18th century<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>

        The mills, hidden in citrus groves and waterfalls, were beautiful places to create paper. <\/span><\/p>

        However, the paper mills were unfortunately retired in the 19th century due to flooding and poor roadways<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>

        Regardless of this sad end, Amalfi is famous for its paper and its role in paper history. <\/span><\/p>

        The Paper Museum continues to thrive and show visitors how to make bambagina<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>
