Valli di Argenta Museum
It houses exhibition trails for a wide audience: from families with small children to schoolchildren and researchers. The Environmental Education Centre is made up of two sections, one dedicated to History and the other to Nature. The first documents the evolution in the relationship between people and the natural environment, and it bears witness to daily life from the Middle Ages to the 1900s.
The Nature section prepares you for the visit to the reserve, the real open-air museum, with a fascinating multi-sensorial chamber in which you can live the sensations and atmosphere of a day outside.
The four habitats to discover, shown in giant imagese in the Museum are:
The Lily pound, The Reed Bed, The wet Meadow, The Carr Woodland.
Outside the museum extends the 1,600 hectares of the Val Campotto Oasis.
