Museo Poschiavino

Palazzo de Bassus-Mengotti

Description

The Museum of the Valley collects and exhibits the testimonies of the history, culture, art and social conditions of the past of Valposchiavo. The museum has two locations, the imposing Palazzo de Bassus-Mengotti on the right bank of the Poschiavino and the historic Casa Tomè on the left bank of the river.

The Palazzo de Bassus-Mengotti hosts several permanent exhibitions, such as the one on the agriculture of the valley, the confectioners, the habits of the owners and the history of the palace.

A special gem are the precious ethnological collections of the Municipality of Poschiavo. These are Etruscan ceramics from central Italy and a collection of votive objects and rituals from India. The Valposchiavo Museum is thus transformed from a center of local history into a meeting place between different cultures.
