Museo del Risorgimento e dell’Età Contemporanea
The Museo del Risorgimento is housed at Palazzo Laderchi, a historic 18th-century residence in Faenza. Documents, memorabilia, letters and portraits span almost two centuries of history: from the earliest evidence, dating back to the entry of Napoleonic troops into the town in 1790, to the most recent, relating to the Second World War. Palazzo Laderchi itself is much admired, with its Neoclassical interior decoration and original spaces, such as the room dedicated to astronomy and the Galleria delle Feste, decorated with the stories of Cupid and Psyche.
