The Museum of the Memory of Bagnone offers an immersive journey into the history of the Bagnone community. Through the digitization of photographs, documents, and audio-video testimonies, the museum preserves the memory of the village with videos, stories, and images.
The Historical Archives, dating back to the seventeenth century, and the museum halls in Piazza Marconi recount Bagnone’s medieval and modern history. These are complemented by thematic routes, temporary exhibitions, and cartographic documents that connect the town’s past to the broader territory.
The Museum of Memory in Piazza Roma focuses on the twentieth century and the wave of emigration that affected the valley, highlighting the role of women and the Barsane—itinerant Bagnonese traders and migrants. It also explores the migration to the United States, with special attention given to the Bagnonese community in California.
The museum also includes a Gipsoteca, celebrating Bagnone’s artistic heritage by showcasing the preparatory plaster casts of Augusto Magli, which depict scenes of daily life and the personification of the Bagnone stream. It offers an immersive experience into the historical and cultural richness of Bagnone, giving visitors a comprehensive view of the village’s legacy in Lunigiana.
