Museo Leone

The Leone Museum was founded in 1910, from the love for his land and the passion for the art of the notary Camillo Leone, who on his death (1907) donated all his possessions and collections to the citizen Institute of Fine Arts. The Museum exhibits archaeological and ancient art collections that illustrate the history of Vercelli and its territory from its origins to the early twentieth century, and a precious collection of decorative art (majolica, glass, furniture, etc.). A rich ancient library, which contains more than 1200 incunabula, cinquecentine and illuminated manuscripts, completes the collection.

Museo Archeologico Civico L. Bruzza

Il MAC sorge nella manica medievale dell'ex monastero di Santa Chiara, che si affaccia su un ampio piazzale che ne costituiva il chiostro. Il museo, intitolato al padre barnabita Luigi Bruzza, è stato allestito su progetto scientifico della Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici del Piemonte. Esso consta di una collezione archeologica di oltre seicento reperti, tutti provenienti dalla città, che illustra la storia dell'antica Vercellae secondo un percorso articolato in sette sale tematiche organizzate in ordine cronologico. Il nuovo Museo Archeologico si sviluppa con un percorso interattivo e multimediale che, grazie all'uso di proiettori e schermi touch consente ai visitatori una fruizione partecipata.
