Why go
About Acetaia Giusti
Casa Giusti is the home of the Giusti family business in the Modena countryside, where balsamic vinegar has been made by the same family since the seventeenth century. Visitors come to follow that story through guided rooms, old tools and the barrels where the vinegar ages, rather than to shop.
The museum is arranged in ten themed rooms and shows antiques and craft tools, among them the A3 cask, the medal board from the Belle Époque and the 1863 recipe written by Giuseppe Giusti. Guides explain how time shapes the vinegar and how the family and the city grew together.
