The Museo Remiero (Rowing Museum) in Limite sull’Arno, in the heart of the village, preserves the memory of a community that has made the river its home and craftsmanship its art form.
Among the antique shipwright’s tools are models of rowing boats, vintage photographs and historical documents, with each item telling a story of hard work, ingenuity and pride.
Walking through the halls, you are immersed in a past of shipyards, oars slicing through the water and dreams traveling on the waves of the Arno.
A faithful reconstruction of a artisan workshop takes visitors back to the ancient act of shaping wood, while trophies, medals and old helms recall the successes won on the waters and in the workshops.
Don’t miss the rowing tank, one of the largest in Italy, designed in 1983 and made by the shipwrights of Limite.
The Rowing Museum is not just a collection of memorabilia but a place where tradition lives on, ready to inspire anyone who wants to hear what the river has to say.
