Grain farming is closely linked to the evolution of civilisation. It was a long way from corn to bread – it took almost 10000 years to make bread out of a corn, and the story about bread itself is almost 5000 years old. In the beginning it did not contain any fermenting agent. It was the Egyptians who used yeast to make bread as we know it today. In Roman times the scent of bread spread all over the world. The culture of bread making survived until the present day. Numerous exhibits show the traditional way of making bread and a special place in the photos is given to Istrian bread ovens that were, up until not to long ago, an important meeting point and crucial for socialization in this rural ambience.
