The Risorgimento and the stories of the Unification of Italy

Eyeglasses, newspapers, red shirts, swords and paintings, rebuses and photographs: the extraordinary collection of the Museo Centrale del Risorgimento becomes in this tour a map illustrating the ideals and characters that gave life to the struggle for the creation of a united and independent Italy. It will be possible to retrace this history, from Mazzini's republican dream to Garibaldi's campaigns, and from the strategic alliances of the Kingdom of Sardinia - concerted by Cavour and Vittorio Emanuele II - to the completion of the First World War.
