Mediamuseum, Media museum in Pescara, Italy

The Mediamuseum occupies the former courthouse on Piazza Emilio Alessandrini in Pescara. It holds posters, newspaper articles, photographs, paintings, panels and multimedia on cinema and theatre, with material on Ennio Flaiano, Gabriele D'Annunzio, Basilio Cascella and the Premio Flaiano. It also serves as a public video library, library, newspaper archive and photo archive.

The museum opened in 1995 to mark a century since the Lumière brothers introduced cinema to the world. This timing linked the building's transformation to the evolution of moving images as a major cultural force over the past 100 years.

The museum is named after Ennio Flaiano, the Pescara-born writer and screenwriter, and its collection links cinema and theatre to him, to Gabriele D'Annunzio, to the painter Basilio Cascella and to the Premio Flaiano. The cultural association Ennio Flaiano, which has organised the Premio Flaiano since 1973, has its seat in the museum.
