Fondazione Accorsi - Ometto - Museo di Arti Decorative
About This Museum
Tucked away on the elegant Via Po, a stone's throw from the River Po in Turin, this museum feels more like stepping into the grand home of a discerning collector than a formal gallery. It all started with Pietro Accorsi's passion for the decorative arts, and his personal treasures form the heart of what you'll see today. You'll wander through rooms brimming with exquisite furniture, delicate porcelain, and shimmering silverware that tell the story of daily life and luxury from the 18th century onwards. The atmosphere is wonderfully intimate, giving you a real sense of connection to the past.
