Description

Discover the collection of the Bagatti Valsecchi Museum, one of the most well-preserved house museums in Europe and one of the first major expressions of Milanese design.

The Bagatti Valsecchi Museum is a house-museum resulting from an extraordinary collecting story of the late nineteenth century, which sees two brothers as protagonists: the barons Fausto and Giuseppe Bagatti Valsecchi. Starting in the 1880s, the two brothers undertook the renovation of their family home located in the heart of Milan, in a palace between Via Gesù and Via Santo Spirito.

Concurrently, they began to collect paintings and applied art artefacts from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries with the intention of displaying them in their home, thus creating a residence inspired by the homes of sixteenth-century Lombardy.

After the deaths of Fausto and Giuseppe, the Bagatti Valsecchi house remained inhabited by their heirs until 1974, when the Bagatti Valsecchi Foundation was established, to which the artistic heritage accumulated by the two brothers was donated. Twenty years later, in 1994, the Bagatti Valsecchi Museum opened to the public, representing one of the best-preserved museum houses in Europe and one of the first major expressions of Milanese design.
