Belluno's Interactive Museum of Migrations collects stories of migrations. Italians abroad and foreigners welcomed in our country, the purpose of the museum is to tell the stories of those who have left their homeland in search of work and a better life. It features video interviews, photographs, and historical documents.

The MIM is the start of a 13 leg itinerary that covers the whole province and involves the following  museums:

It is not often that we come across places where there is a sort of magical fusion between art and nature, between history and tradition, and where there is no lack of opportunity to spend wonderful moments in the open air.

All this is possible at the Sojo Park, in the town of Lusiana Conco (Vicenza). It is an oasis of green which features around sixty sculptural installations created by a variety of internationally famous artists.

In Mezzaselva di Roana there is a Park that attracts visitors and protects the territory where nature and art merge. This is the SelvArt Park, on the Plateau of the Sette Comuni in Vicenza province. The 30 permanent outdoor installations created by internationally famous artists, are in the heart of Kantregar forest and give voice to the forest through materials recovered from the environment. 

The easy 2-hour route of abgout 3 km is open all year round and admittance is free. To know more about Selvart, visitors may be accompanied by the Park guides.

One of the most interesting female characters in the story of the Repubblica Serenissima (The Most Serene Republic of Venice) is Caterina Cornaro, born in Venice in 1454. Caterina was married to the King of Cyprus and Armenia but, after his death, was forced to abdicate in favour of Venice. The Republic of Venice repaid her by bestowing the stronghold of Asolo to her, where she established a very refined court.

The botanical garden in Padua was founded in 1545 and is the world's oldest university botanical garden. This natural and architectural wonder houses nearly 7,000 plant species, a unique variety of specimens recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1997.

The old garden, a circular structure in which a square is inscribed that is divided into four more regular squares, is the product of scientific fervour on the one hand and the ideals of order, balance and geometry that enlivened Padua's cultural landscape during the Renaissance on the other hand.

Monte Rite can be reached from Passo Cibiana along an accessible dirt path about 7 km long. Once you reach the top, a few steps from the Dolomites Refuge, you will find the Messner Mountain Museum Dolomites, better known as the Museum in the Clouds.

This space tells the story of exploration and mountaineering in the Dolomites. During your visit you can admire photos, paintings, works of art and artefacts to discover the true essence of the mountains and the Dolomites.

The Castle of San Pelagio is surrounded by three hectares of green land. We are located in Due Carrare, in the province of Padua. This is the place that, between 1917 and 1918, welcomed poet Gabriele D'Annunzio as he prepared to fly over Vienna, a notable episode of the Great War that changed the castle's fate. As a consequence, the Zaborra family, owner of the villa, decided to transform part of the property into the Museum of Flight.

Located in the municipality of Revine Lago, in the province of Treviso, the Parco Archeologico Didattico del Livelet (" Livelet Educational Archaeological Park") is located in a small area that caters for a variety of natural, historical and food and wine interests.

The halls of the Museo del Maglio of Breganze recount the world of blacksmiths. Among the various exhibits, a historical record from 1635, year in which the owners of the Power Hammer required the use of a water course, a necessary element for the functioning of the impressive tool. 

The Cansiglio is a pre-Alpine plateau amid the provinces of Belluno, Treviso and Pordenone. Shaped like a basin, it is a veritable paradise for hiking through its vast forest, which is the second-largest in Italy. But aside from the naturalistic interest afforded here, it is worth visiting this territory to discover an ancient ethnic settlement dating back to the beginning of the 1800s. We are talking about the Cimbri people.
