Luigi Bailo Museum, Art museum in Treviso, Italy.
The Luigi Bailo Museum is an art museum in Treviso housing approximately 340 artworks spanning from the second half of the 1800s through the middle of the 1900s. The collection includes paintings, sculptures, and other artistic media that document the creative developments and styles of this period.
The building originally served as a Benedictine monastery before coming under Jesuit administration in the 1600s and later housing a mendicant religious community. In 1879 the structure was transformed into a museum to gather and display artworks from the region.
The museum displays works by artists such as Arturo Martini and Gino Rossi, who shaped the artistic direction of the Veneto region. Visitors can observe how local creators engaged with broader European movements of their era.
The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday and offers complete accessibility for people with mobility needs throughout the building. Visitors should plan for one to two hours to move through the collections at a comfortable pace.
The facade underwent a major redesign in 2015 by Austrian architect Heinz Tesar that creates a bridge between the historic structure and its urban surroundings. This modernization allows visitors to experience the courtyard as an open, welcoming space that brings together the old and new architectural languages.
