Historical notes

The Museum-workshop was born in 2003 inside the Primary school of the Institute "F. Gonzaga" to let people discover the history of the school in Guastalla. The Museum has two rooms where two classrooms are reproduced, one of the first half of the XX Century and the other one of the period after the IIWW. In these rooms are preserved original fornitures and educational objects, togheter with documents and papers dated between 1843 and 1970.
