Museum Historical Archive Library

This website was created with the aim of sensitising, promoting and enhancing the cultural heritage contained within the three main structures of each city: the Museum, the Historical Archive and the Library.

These structures perform the fundamental task to protect a heritage which represents the historical and cultural memory of the town, organising and making available artworks and documents not only for scholars and researchers but for all the citizens too.
