Museum of the Fioroni Foundation

The Fioroni Foundation Museum is located in the nineteenth-century building called Villa Fioroni, a building dating back to 1887, which houses a private collection of the Fioroni family. The building is located in Viale della Stazione and is now the seat of the cultural foundation of the same name. Of particular interest is the "Oriental Hall" located on the ground floor of the building which houses exotic souvenirs and trophies of big game hunting (you can admire long colonial rifles, dressed African and Oriental tribal leaders as well as objects collected by Mr. Fioroni during his expeditions and vintage photos), while on the first floor in the "Halls of the Risorgimento" you can see some relics of patriotic woodlanders. Also interesting is the bedroom, which belonged to the Hotel Paglia, where Giuseppe Garibaldi stayed.
