Raccolte extraeuropee del Castello Sforzesco, Ethnographic and art museum in Castello Sforzesco, Milan, Italy.
The museum contains over 8,000 objects from Asia, Africa, Americas, and Oceania, displayed across 650 square meters of exhibition space.
The museum opened in 1900 as part of the Sforza Castle Civic Museums, establishing a permanent collection of non-European artifacts within the 15th-century fortress.
The collection spans from Pre-Columbian Peru artifacts dating 1200-200 BC to early 20th-century pieces, representing diverse global traditions and artistic expressions.
The museum provides educational workshops, guided tours, and rotating exhibitions, with information available through the Castello Sforzesco website.
In 2015, the museum transferred its materials to the Museum of Cultures in Milan, maintaining semi-temporary exhibitions within the castle due to space limitations.
