About

Even non-specialists will find this museum interesting where military activities both during wartime and peace are documented. Of the objects on display, some belonged to the Counts of Cavour; there is the first military aeroplane, scientific instrumentation, and models of battlescenes. Then there are the means of military communication such as carrier pigeons, the telegraph and the radio. Upstairs there is a display of military architectures from prehistoric forts to reconstructions of castles. The archive has an interesting collection of documents and photographs. Entrance: free
