Few towns in Calabria have a history as closely tied to accordion making as Soveria Mannelli. In the wooded interior west of the Sila plateau, it developed as a highland rail town on the line between Cosenza and Catanzaro, operated by Ferrovie della Calabria. The Museo della Fisarmonica preserves instruments and documents the craft that has long given the town a distinctive identity. Within Catanzaro province, Soveria Mannelli represents an inland Calabria of upland roads, small communities and mountain country rather than the region’s better-known coasts.
