Our Molino Paolo Mariani mill was founded in the early 1900s, when Quinto Mariani belonging to a century-long family of millers, decided to settle down in Barbara and to buy an antique mill with hydraulically-powered millstones dated back to 1792.
From that day, our mill continued grinding the flour by simply implementing the water power coming from Nevola river. When, during the 1950s, Quinto’s son, Urbano, gradually shifted towards a new electrically powered system with an innovative milling process based on cylinder machines.
Today, we are really proud to say that our Molino Paolo Mariani mill is a fourth-generation business which continues to dedicate itself, with more experience and with deep respect, to this antique vocation that has always elevated the human being towards the huge responsibility to feed humanity.
