The Niccacci historical Mill is closing

The flour from the Niccacci mill
was a must in the kitchen

The historical mill owned by a branch of the Niccacci family and located on Via della Molinella in Deruta will close at the end of the month of May.

It is a historical mill that goes back to the 1400s and supplied the Papal States located in Perugia. Originally the mill was operated by water.

Owner Agostino Niccacci says there is no more market for his flour. His flour was the best in the area and the most reliable in terms of quality and health. Larger operations have taken over for the retail supplies as well as supermarkets for the single customers, he says.

We are going to lose more than 600 years of history of our town. Ciao Molinella!
