Palazzo del Fumetto
About This Museum
The Palazzo del Fumetto isn't your typical hushed Italian museum; it's a vibrant celebration of comic art, or 'fumetti,' that pulses with color and creativity. Housed in a beautifully restored historic palazzo, it feels more like stepping into a living graphic novel than a static gallery. You'll find everything from vintage Mickey Mouse magazines to original pages from iconic Italian series like Diabolik and Corto Maltese. It’s a place that delights both serious collectors and families just discovering the magic of sequential art.
Collection Highlights
Look for the prized original sketches by Hugo Pratt for his legendary sailor, Corto Maltese, and the dramatic black-and-white panels featuring the master thief Diabolik. The museum also boasts an incredible archive of international classics, allowing you to trace the evolution of pop culture through its pages.
Visitor Information
Don't just look—get drawing! The museum frequently hosts workshops where you can try your hand at inking or character design. It's wonderfully engaging for kids, but be sure to check their website for current exhibition themes as they love to rotate their dynamic displays.
Architecture & Building
The collection is presented within the elegant, high-ceilinged rooms of a classic early 20th-century Italian palazzo, where ornate moldings and grand archways create a striking contrast with the modern pop art on the walls.
