Marconi Museum

The Marconi Museum is a technology museum in Sasso Marconi that houses instruments and equipment from the history of wireless telegraphy. The collection shows how these devices contributed to the development of radio communication.

The site was the setting for groundbreaking experiments in the late 1800s when Marconi created his first working radio apparatus. This invention transformed communication possibilities and laid the foundation for modern telecommunications.

The museum displays letters, photographs, and personal belongings that document Marconi's life and his standing in the scientific community. Visitors can see where the inventor worked and how his ideas took shape over time.

The museum is housed in a historic villa and can be explored on foot, with all areas accessible at ground level. Plan for at least two hours to visit, and note that guided tours are available for more detailed information.

In Villa Griffone, visitors can see the original laboratory space where Marconi actually worked and conducted his experiments. This preserved room gives a direct sense of how the first radio experiments unfolded.
