Museo di Storia della Psichiatria

Museum Emilia, Italy

Interesting and exciting museum, well-renovated rooms and period exhibits in excellent state of conservation. You leave a little sad but aware of how many steps forward have been made.

The Museum's collection has an ancient history: it was established by the director Carlo Livi in 1875, to show the progress, discoveries and applications that formed a title of pride for psychiatric science and its institution and was expanded by successive directors, who they kept part of the care objects no longer in use.
