Wolfsoniana

The Wolfsoniana is an art museum in the Nervi district of Genoa that displays works from 1880 to 1945. The collections include paintings, sculptures, and furnishings organized by period and topic.

The museum was founded by Mitchell Wolfson Jr., whose family had media interests, and he later donated his extensive collection to Genoa. The works document a time of major artistic change and industrial development.

The museum displays art movements such as Art Nouveau, Art Deco, and Rationalism, which were closely connected to the social changes of the early 1900s. The objects on show tell stories about what people valued and desired during this period.

The museum is located at Via Serra Gropallo 4 and is open Tuesday through Sunday. The building has wheelchair-accessible facilities and clear signage to help you find your way.

The collection includes fully furnished room settings and architectural drawings that show how people lived and built during that era. It also contains rare propaganda materials and documents about urban development during industrialization.
