Revolutionary, entrepreneur, explorer partly by chance and partly out of necessity after his forced escape from the peninsula, he left Bergamo and went overseas, traveling for years where few had gone. With the new exhibition you can discover all the facets of this personality who is still little known to the general public, retracing his steps in the Americas through visual settings, interactive immersions, letters, maps, travel diaries and other personal items that belonged to him.
Don't miss the "cabinet" documenting his presence in Mexico and the Caribbean Sea, as well as the artifacts he collected along the Mississippi River-among the oldest surviving American Indian heritage. Finally, there will be no shortage of a look at his cultural legacy, from books to the birth of the legend through the establishment of Beltrami County.
Come and get to know him, too!
