The Museum of Resistance and Social Life was founded on the initiative of the former Genoese partisan Giambattista Lazagna, deputy commander of the Pinan-Cichero division who fought in the Borbera valley, with the support of the Piedmont region and the municipality.
At Palazzo Spinola are collected weapons, bullets, mortars, field radios, water bottles, bags and backpacks of partisans fighting in Val Borbera and paintings with badges and ranks of partisan commands. In 2003 it was dedicated to the founder Giambattista Lazagna.
