The Casa Manno Museum is located in the historic center of the city of Alghero, near the Cathedral of Santa Maria. The Museum is dedicated to Giuseppe Manno, a magistrate, historian and politician from Alghero. The Museum was inaugurated in 2012 to promote and enhance the figure of Manno and contemporary history. The Museum was Manno's birthplace, completely restored in 2012 after decades of neglect and the bombings of 1943. The exhibition itinerary, which winds through 11 rooms, offers, also thanks to the use of multimedia supports, a cross-section of a an era rich in transformations and central to the national formation process of Italian history. The life of Manno and his writings tell of a people between the end of the eighteenth century and the long nineteenth century. The museum collection presents a numerous exhibition heritage consisting of: sculptures, prints, old books, paintings, furnishings, correspondence, manuscripts and original documentation. The exhibition traces the most significant moments in the history of Manno and, thanks to multimedia supports, it proposes a historical journey of Savoyard Sardinia. Some of the most significant events highlighted here are those that lead to the political unification of the Italian peninsula. The museum has a specific area dedicated to children and museum teaching.
