Discover the Museum of the Park
The Museum of the Park is a centre for information, environmental education and promoting the Gardesana hinterland. Initiated to overcome the imbalance between the coastal region and the mountain hinterland, the Museum provides the elements towards the understanding of the territory, keys to reading the landscape, hints on a deeper knowledge of the history and the cultural traditions, stimulation to compare analogous situations, offering practical help to move along the pathways organised into themes and levels of varied interest. The heart of the Museum is made up of an interesting exhibition route, which winds its way through images and sounds, recalling the landscape and the reconstruction of the environment, naturalistic collections and collections of old working tools, shorts films and interactive posts.
