Next to the Parish Church of Croveo stands the home of the chaplain, a robust building dating back to 1607, recently restored and transformed into a museum dedicated to sacred art and rural life, named after Don Amedeo Ruscetta.
The museum area covers three floors: the first is represented the peasant civilization, the second floor is dedicated to sacred art, while the last floor is in memory of Don Amedeo Ruscetta, pastor of Croveo for about forty years.
Under the roof, where it’s been rebuilt the room of the old pastor, you can also admire specimens of vipers and animals embalmed by the Don Amedeo Ruscetta.
The small museum is available in summer, while in the rest of the year it is necessary to book.
The Museum of the Resistance of Goglio is housed since 2004 in the station of the old cable car – the scene of the massacre of partisans on 17 October 1944 – that led from the village of Baceno to Alpe Devero.
The commemoration takes place every year on the Sunday closest to 17 October. The small museum tells through documents and images, along a path recently renovated and expanded, the struggle of the Resistance, while part of the exhibition is dedicated to the history of the cableway Goglio-Devero.
To visit the museum, you must book calling the Municipality of Baceno.

In Osso di Croveo deserves particular attention a house of the seventeenth century, whose original structure dates back to an older model. The historic house of Osso is considered one of the best examples of Antigorian dwelling and combines elements in wood with the masonry in “serizzo”, a specific variety of local stone. The building testifies to the comfort of successive owners, including transalpine traders and notaries.
