Palazzo Calepini, currently serving as the headquarters for Fondazione Caritro, dates back to the late 16th century and was built at the behest of the noble Calepini family from the Giudicarie valleys. Between 1823 and 1844, Palazzo Calepini served as the seat of the Prince Bishops of Trento. In 1999, the building was acquired by the foundation to be used as their institutional headquarters.

Sustainability

Bianca Guidetti Serra and Primo Levi are friends united by a special bond. They meet on a hike in the mountains around Turin and share a life full of promise. But the German occupation and racial laws change everything: fragments of memory come to us, flying on paper wings.An event by reservation at the MUSE.

A treasure trove of biodiversity in the heart of Trento. The museum garden occupies about 2000 square meters, and is composed of grassy meadows and a pond, whose waters reflect the light glass architecture of the large tropical greenhouse. The garden also includes the gardens and the museum's centenary vineyard, a botanical garden that accompanies you among medicinal plants, vegetables and shrubs from all over the world. An oasis of tranquility where you can observe the ever-changing nature and busy life of the bugs staying at the Bug Hotel.
