Amazing place to visit for both children and grown ups. All machines are still working and the guide in the museum switches them on and demonstrates the paper making process in front of you. The whole tour is around 25 minutes and children can participate in paper making process. The tour was extremely interesting and educational. The guide Maddelena was outstanding, very interactive and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

After leaving the review, we came across other people’s posts that the tab with white water, where children submerge the wooden frame, contains urine. The guide mentioned that urine was used to bleach the paper in the past, but she never mentioned what it was replaced with. The owner of museum, please could you clarify what is in this water exactly.

Wonderful museum. Oldest operating paper mill in Europe. Really cool that they can still make paper like how they did hundreds of years ago. Really neat way to learn about the history of the Amalfi Republic, and great thing to do to get away from the tourist crowds. A authentic way to experience the Amalfi coast besides just the scenery. Great thing to do on a rainy day. You can buy some of the paper too!

We came to visit the Paper Museum in the off-season and everyone in our group of 10 loved it! We had a private tour, saw a few of the machines at work and even made paper! My kids (and husband) tried their hand at some old techniques and our guide was wonderful, knowledgeable and fun. I would recommend this for adults and kids alike.

We are paper people so this is a very cool place to see how paper was made in the 16th and 18th century. 5euro admission and they give you a 20 min tour of the still functional, water driven machines used to make paper in the old days. Great place to buy a thoughtful gift in the shop!
