Risorgimento Museum, Historical museum in Castle of Brescia, Italy.
The Risorgimento Museum houses collections of paintings, sculptures, and historical artifacts within eight distinct sections in the Grande Miglio building of Brescia Castle.
Established in 1887, the museum first opened at Palazzo Martinengo da Barco in 1893 before relocating to the Castle's Grande Miglio building in 1959.
The museum presents the narrative of Brescia's role during Italy's unification through extensive exhibits documenting the Ten Days resistance against Austrian forces.
The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with combined admission tickets granting access to both Risorgimento and Luigi Marzoli Arms museums.
Digital installations and proximity-activated musical tracks complement the physical exhibits, creating an immersive experience of Italian unification history.
