Museo della Comunicazione e del Multimediale Gianni Pelagalli
The Museo della Comunicazione e del Multimediale “Gianni Pelagalli” is one of Bologna’s most unusual and engaging museums, celebrating the evolution of modern communication through an extraordinary private collection. Recognised with a UNESCO award, the museum spans more than six decades of technological history, displaying over 2,000 original and fully functioning objectsmuseopelagalli.com+1. Its rooms trace the development of sound, image and broadcasting, from 18th‑ and 19th‑century mechanical musical instruments to early phonographs, radios, cinema equipment and the first generations of television. Founded and curated by Giovanni Pelagalli, an electronics expert and passionate collector, the museum offers an immersive experience where many devices are demonstrated during guided visits, bringing the story of communication to life. This intimate, hands‑on atmosphere makes it a distinctive cultural stop for anyone interested in technology, media and the heritage of innovation.
