Audiovisual Museum of the Resistance

The Audiovisual Museum of the Resistance is a history museum in Fosdinovo that documents the resistance movement during World War II in the Lunigiana region. The exhibition relies entirely on video testimonies, recorded accounts, and digital installations rather than physical objects.

The museum was founded in 2000 by the National Association of Italian Partisans to honor local resistance fighters. The site stands near the Gothic Line, where partisan and Nazi-fascist forces clashed during the war.

The museum centers on the experiences of people from the region who lived through and shaped the resistance movement. The spaces bring their stories to life through modern digital approaches that preserve local voices and perspectives.

The museum is located on Via delle Prate and offers wheelchair accessibility so all visitors can explore the exhibitions comfortably. The digital content is optimized for different levels of vision and requires no special preparation or background knowledge to understand.

The museum uses the work of Studio Azzurro, a renowned collective for digital art installations, to convey history through audiovisual experiences. This innovative approach makes it an unusual example of how museums employ contemporary technology to explore historical events.
