We visited this museum on our last afternoon in Amalfi. We walked up to it & thoroughly enjoyed the tour. The young lady who took us on the tour was very knowledgeable & interesting. It was a fun tour to see how they made the paper & we actually got to make a sheet. We enjoyed the gift shop afterwards as we bought some beautiful bookmarks & stationery to take home to our daughters & Granddaughter. This is very well worth your time to tour, do not miss it!!

This was as advertised in the other reviews. A bit of a walk from city center but worth it. The guided tour is best. Short, but definitely worth it. Several of the old machines actually still run! Fascinating. Highly recommend.

Going to the paper museum was a last minute plan on a rainy day in Amalfi but we're so glad we went! The staff is very kind and knowledgeable. They take you on a 20 min tour of the old paper mill and show you every aspect of how it was made and run the machines for you! You even get to make your own paper! I would highly recommend to anybody (kids and adults) if you're looking for something quick, fun and educational to do in Amalfi town. It was one of our favorite parts of our visit!

Housed in a medieval mill, this museum is focused on what was apparently a huge business for many centuries in the town of Amalfi - paper making. The tour includes looking at some old machines used for processing both old cloth and cellulose into a thick, luxurious, sought after "paper". It is a hands-on experience and includes making your own paper.

Small low key museum - wonderfully cool if you need to escape the sun! Extremely friendly staff and tour guide (19/6/24) was engaging, informative and friendly to my kids who were too shy when offered to make a sheet of paper! Well Done to the staff for being so welcoming of tourists!

This was a very interesting museum, I enjoyed the tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and was really into the history of this museum… we made sheets of papers which was really cool…. Great activity for a family …. It was educational and very relaxed and low keyed….the tour lasted about 30 minutes at the most …. Most of the time was spent actually making paper Highly recommend

A unique experience. Charming small museum that explains how Amalfi introduced paper production in Europe centuries ago. Built in a small ancient building for paper production. A nice local guide shows how paper was made and gets to work devices from different centuries. Then you can produce you own piece of paper yourself. Both kids and adults have a great time. A very nice introduction to the relevance of Amalfi in history, and a way to get to know its skillful and inventive inhabitants. Well worth the visit.

It's hard not to be impressed with the skill of the engineers that made this paper mill centuries ago. The power of the water from the canalized tanks used to store sufficient water to start the water wheels turning is impressive. This is a working and hands on place!

Very interesting and informative tour. Nice to see the machinery switched on and working. Emilio was a lively, knowledgeable and amusing tour guide. We bought some lovey handmade paper from the shop as a souvenir too.

Housed in an old paper mill dating back to the 13th century, it is really unique and a trip back in time. You can see centuries-old machines used in the production of handmade paper and try to make some paper as well. You can see the stream, the mill and the whole place is so well preserved. The guided tour in English was informative and fun. It takes about an hour for the whole visit and it's really worth it!
