Museum of the Risorgimento
The Museum of the Risorgimento has been in Via Lomellini since 1934, in the building where Giuseppe Mazzini was born. It also houses the archives and a specialized library. The tour of the Museum of the Risorgimento runs through 14 rooms built on three floors.
Hundreds of art works and objects are on display including relics, paintings, prints, posters, manuscripts, weapons, uniforms and more documenting the political, social and cultural development of the Italian Risorgimento.
All this is told from the particular and somewhat privileged point of view of Genoa which played a crucial role in the Risorgimento.
