Walser museum – Alagna vALSESIA
Bearing witness to the culture of the Walser people who settled in Valsesia in the Middle Ages, and housed in a three-storey house dating back to 1628, the Walser Museum is an ethnographic museum where you can learn about the life of this population of German origin.
The museum provides insight into the building system of the Walser house in Alagna, but above all represents a true historical memory and a tool for reconstructing the sociological and anthropological aspects of the Walser culture.
It houses furniture, objects, tools and work implements, clothing, furnishings, period artefacts and items needed for everyday life.
