Belluno Interactive Museum of Migrations
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 It features video interviews, photographs, and historical documents.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:
Sojo Park
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.
SelvArt
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.
The Labyrinth dedicated to Borges
There is a green corner on the Venetian island of San Giorgio Maggiore where the streets branch off and merge: this is the Labyrinth dedicated to Jorge Luis Borges, designed by the Englishman Randoll Coate at the request of the Argentine writer's wife 25 years after his death.
In the footsteps of Queen Corner
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.
