"Giovanni Podenzana" Town Ethnographic Museum

Dedicated to the musician, ethnographer and naturalist Giovanni Podenzana, the museum brings together what was already the anthropological section of La Spezia's civic museums in 1873. The collection today includes many objects from the Magra Valley and the Vara Valley. Above all, textile and wooden materials identify the collection, whose finds can be dated from the 18th to the 20th century. Obviously, ample space is given to family manufactures, which bear witness to the harshness but authenticity of an economy largely based on the agro-sylvo-pastoral system, with its specificities and distinctive features that now risk being forgotten. Several themes are addressed by the collection.
