The Interactive and Multisensory installation allows you to explore the different eras that have marked the city: from Prehistory, through the Middle Ages and the Silk Age, to Modernity and the Industrial Age.
A dynamic and participatory space, ideal for those who want to discover the history of Rovereto through Objects, Works of Art, Photographs, Documents and Multimedia supports.
The main works of art on display come from the city’s art collections and tell the story and characters of Rovereto through paintings, sculptures and objects that cover a time span from the 16th to the 20th century.
In addition to the rooms on Prehistory and the Early Middle Ages and the Silk Industry, a watershed and at the same time a link between the medieval village and the modern city, there are also insights into the history of Rovereto between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, with the metamorphosis from village to city, a transformation that began in the Venetian era and was completed in these centuries, when the maximum economic and commercial expansion determined, together with a strong demographic growth, an increase in construction and an unprecedented cultural development.
The journey then continues in the nineteenth century which represents for Rovereto a century of great transformation from an industrial, urban and social point of view, with great changes in the habits and lifestyles of the Roveretan society.
The “Enigmatic Tablets”
Terracotta artefacts of ellipsoidal, oval or sub-rectangular shape, dating back to the Bronze Age (about 2100-1400 BC), characterized by geometric signs impressed on one of the surfaces and are the subject of in-depth studies to decipher their meaning, which still remains partially mysterious.
The City Museum of Rovereto exhibits them as fundamental archaeological evidence for understanding the culture and communication in the Bronze Age in Vallagarina
