Review of Musei Civici di Reggio Emilia

the civic museums of Reggio Emilia are a particula...

the civic museums of Reggio Emilia are a particular example of coexistence between a modern museum and nineteenth-century museum collections.
in the museum of Reggio Emilia you will not only find the classic mineral, animal, ethnic, archaeological collections of which one can normally expect in a museum of natural sciences, but you will also find private collections of famous people in history with the birthplace in the province of Reggio Emilia, like the Chierici, the Spallanzani, the Fontanesi, the Baron Franchetti and others, presented, and sometimes still preserved in the original closets of the time, as it was natural to compose them in the historical period of the early 1800s.
experience of the civic museums of Reggio Emilia meet the findings of natural sciences is a historical and cultural journey that has had the good fortune to preserve eek I have not found any other similar museum in the area of reggio, parma, modena, bologna.
finally I just want to say that in Reggio Emilia it is not just a museum that preserves a snapshot of the museum concept of the 1800s, it came out to dedicate the spaces of the areas obviously to a modern contemporary and usable musical style, to create very interesting laboratories, to evolve continuously with temporary exhibitions of performance events so as not to be a static museum but a very interesting cultural center of attraction.
civic museums have a well-made and constantly updated website where they present their rich agenda of events that sometimes even change at weekly level
