The Education Museum is located in the historic center of Padua and is part of the University Museums of the University of Padua. In the Museum of Education you can find books and toys, photos and notebooks, teaching aids and school furnishings, registers and report cards, graduate diplomas and papyri, inks and nibs not simply collected but scientifically selected to document how, from the nineteenth century to today , the younger generations have been "educated" from birth to entry into adult life. The Museum, formally established in 1993 as an expression of the specific, centuries-old vocation of the University of Padua for historical and educational studies, today boasts one of the richest heritage in Europe and preserves some unique pieces dating back to the nineteenth century, such as the notebook of calligraphy by the master Vincenzo Sproviero or the device for the fusion of colors by Ida Pilotto Sottini, and others from the early twentieth century such as the roller coaster model or the large theater for real puppet shows. The Museum also preserves a large number of manuscript (notebooks, certificates, diaries), iconographic (photographs, wall tables, slides) and printed sources (books, magazines) from which Italian and foreign scholars have drawn and still draw. It therefore has a threefold function: it responds to the scientific needs of those who intend to deepen the history of the training system within their respective research fields; it is proposed as a didactic laboratory for teachers in training and in service; it opens up to the territory, especially schools, with various dissemination activities.
