Casa del Giocattolo

The Toy House is one of the unmissable places in Monteleone di Puglia.

The place

The museum was founded in 2018 at the behest of Commendatore Michele Contella, a Monteleonese transplanted to Prato.

The private collection has 5,000 games of the past in tin, wood, paper and cardboard and it is

It is a real dive into an era in which the game was only supported by objects, but had the fulcrum of its being in the imagination of children.

Among the exhibited material there are lead soldiers, spinning tops, marbles, dolls, airplanes, helicopters, etc...

The games on display, original or self-produced, range from the early 1950s to the 1970s and come from the private collection of Enzo Pisaneschi, a fan of vintage games.
