M9 Museum

M9 Museum in Mestre documents the 20th century using digital displays, photographs, videos, and interactive installations across two floors. The collection spans eight thematic sections that explore different aspects of Italian society throughout that period.

The museum opened in late 2018 with the mission to preserve and present Italian history from the 20th century. It houses materials from approximately 150 archives containing thousands of documents and recordings from that period.

The museum displays how Italian daily life transformed across the century, from family structures to work habits and leisure activities. These changes become visible through personal objects and stories of people who lived through them.

The museum is located in Mestre on the outskirts of Venice and opens four days per week. You can explore the displays at your own pace without following a set route through the space.

Rather than presenting only facts, the museum centers on personal stories from ordinary people throughout the century. These individual perspectives make large historical shifts feel real and understandable in human terms.
