Casa Noha

The house is really hard to find. We had been searching for an hour to find it. And in the burning sun it was quite an experience. But our struggle was worth it. The staff were amazing, they were nice, friendly. And they spoke English very well (from experience during my stay, we struggled because of language barrier in many places so it was a happy relief :) ). The Casa Noha isn’t a big sight because of its look. You watch 4 videos in 3 rooms and they have an authentic kitchen in the 4th room. The videos are very interesting. I found them one of the best informative videos I have ever watched. The narrative is understandable, and helpful to understand how the people of Matera have lived. I think all of us came out satisfied, and with more knowledge than before. I recommend it before visiting the whole town. It gives you another perspective than just walking around in the city of ruins.

Really good museum with movie in English via headphones. Excellent insight into the whole history of Matera. If you have English National Trust cards with you it’s free!

Casa Noha in Matera is a historic house that offers a unique multimedia experience, telling the story of the city and its rock-dwelling inhabitants. It’s a great starting point for anyone who wants to learn a bit about Matera’s history.

The perfect way to learn about the fascinating history of Matera and the Sassi. It's not an easy watch at times, but it is incredibly interesting and gives you a far deeper understanding of the city you're exploring.

A very informative movie exhibition providing an in-depth historical background of Matera... But if you are a member of National Trust you get a free entry as there is a cooperation between the NT and the FAI of Italy. If you buy online you miss this chance....

Interesting place. Basically it is a short movie about Matera history, so you should not expect to see some exhibitions apart from the old house itself. I would rather dedicate time for some cave house with preserved furniture.

Nice place and the stuff is friendly. We learned a lot about Matera's history. However, the entrance costs 6,5€, not 3€.

Casa Noha was the perfect introduction to Matera. Located near the Duomo, this multimedia experience inside a restored home tells the history of the Sassi through an immersive video installation. It’s only about 30 minutes long but incredibly powerful – walking through rooms as projections and soundscapes transport you through centuries of Matera’s life. It gave us the historical and emotional context we needed to truly appreciate the city. Entry was just €6 and well worth it. Staff were helpful and gave us a printed guide in English. Highly recommended as your first stop in the city – it changes how you see everything that follows.
