MA – Museo Africano is a unique cultural space in Verona dedicated to exploring the histories, traditions, and contemporary realities of African societies. Founded by the Missionari Comboniani, the museum presents a rich collection of artworks, ritual objects, textiles, masks, and everyday items that reflect the diversity of the African continent. Its exhibitions highlight themes such as spirituality, craftsmanship, identity, and intercultural dialogue, encouraging visitors to engage with cultures often underrepresented in European museums. The setting, housed within a peaceful complex near the Roman Theatre, enhances the reflective atmosphere. Through its educational programmes and thoughtful displays, the museum fosters understanding and connection between Africa and Verona’s local community.

Ma - Museo Africano is located on Vicolo Pozzo 1 in the Veronetta district, on the eastern side of the River Adige just uphill from Verona’s historic centre. It lies a short walk from the Romanesque church of San Giovanni in Valle and is close to the Roman Theatre and the Museo Archeologico al Teatro Romano, while nearby paths lead towards the panoramic terraces of Castel San Pietro and down to the riverside promenades that connect back to Ponte Pietra and the old town’s cafés and restaurants.
