Il percorso

The route begins in the Town Hall Room, where documents and objects used in oath-taking introduce municipal government. It continues to the shooting society, whose duties evolved from town defence into sporting competition.

The next two stops concern healthcare: historic pharmacy furnishings and Vojtech Alexander’s X-ray machine. The route ends with guilds and crafts, explored through tools, rules, training certificates and objects used in shared professional life.
