In front of the shop "Olive e Oile" (Olives and Oils) in Via Gardesana, 246 in Malcesine, a part of an olive oil press has been put up for display. A part of the former mechanism is also there, but unfortunately no further information. The two stones and the stone, on which they were rotated, are resting in a green metal structure, that was most likely part of the mill. The stones are in very good condition.

Type of mill: Unknown
