The border theme that characterizes the Demoethnoanthropological Museum, inaugurated in 2008, enhances a vocation of the territory, perceived in various ways and represented by contemporary social life. Sonnino's history from the Middle Ages to the modern age has continually dealt with issues concerning borders.
- The Museum's mission has two purposes:
- revisit the contents of tradition in the light of contemporary experience, inviting us to reflect on the cultural boundary as a limit and as a resource;
- to focus on those moments, those aspects and those characters who participate in the process of building the local notion of cultural heritage.
- The exhibition is organized in sets, visions, dramatizations and other multisensory suggestions.
