Casa Siviero

Casa Siviero is a house museum on Lungarno Serristori in Florence that displays the personal belongings and artworks of Rodolfo Siviero. The rooms contain a varied collection that he assembled throughout his career and kept as part of his home.

Siviero used this location during World War II to track and document Italian artworks stolen by Nazi forces. His work helped identify and later return many plundered treasures to their rightful owners.

The residence holds Etruscan artifacts, Roman sculptures, medieval wooden statues, and paintings from the Renaissance and Baroque periods displayed in a home setting. These works show how one person gathered art across many centuries and kept them close.

Visits are organized through guided tours offered in several languages, giving you a structured overview of the collections. The building is fully accessible and accommodates visitors with different mobility needs.

The museum library holds handwritten records documenting the locations of artworks looted during wartime. These documents proved crucial in tracing stolen masterpieces and returning them to museums and private owners.
