Museo Bagatti Valsecchi

The Domestic Renaissance of the Bagatti Valsecchi

The Bagatti Valsecchi Museum, born of an extraordinary art collecting adventure at the end of the 19^th century, was shaped by two brothers, the Barons Fausto and Giuseppe Bagatti Valsecchi, who restructured their family home in the heart of downtown Milan in the Neo-Renaissance style, and furnished it with their rich 15^th – 16^thcentury Italian art and decorative arts collections. Open to the public since 1994, Fausto’s and Giuseppe’s home, preserved just as it was, is a fascinating historic house museum.
