Museums of Italian emigration

The museums of Italian emigration

A bridge between generations

Emigration museums represent places of crucial importance for understanding and preserving the history of Italian migrations. These institutions offer a valuable window into the experiences, challenges, and achievements of people who have left their homelands in search of new opportunities and a better life elsewhere. These bodies then play a vital role in passing on the stories of the emigrated communities and in documenting the effect that these migrations have had on both the societies of departure and those of destination.
