from where i work
uploaded by otrocalpeLast week we saw the inside of a 1960s era concertina factory; this week we get a glimpse inside a modern-day accordion factory. Flickr user otrocalpe took this photo, which shows a workstation inside the accordion factory where he works in Castelfidardo, Italy. (Castelfidardo is the legendary center of the Italian accordion industry and home to an accordion museum.) Apparently, this factory was built by his grandfather sixty years ago!

I totally want to take a tour of an accordion factory. That would be a great documentary, too. Awesome.

I’m going to visit Castelfidardo’s accordion museum and factories in Feb 2012.
Do the accordion factories and museum open on Sat and Sun?
