Founded in 1991, the museum celebrates not only the village, but also the history and fortunes of the family that gave it its name, wealth and once-international notoriety. The museum is spread over six exhibition spaces. On the ground floor of the main building, the exhibit traces the history of the Tasso family in the service of the Habsburgs.The schematic family tree of the Tasso lineage, starting in 1250 to the present day with family members currently residing in Regensburg (Germany) and Duino (in the vicinity of Trieste), stands out on the back wall. Here the complex ramification of the great dynasty is highlighted with special emphasis on certain figures, such as Francesco, Simone, and Giovan Battista Tasso who worked for the Habsburgs (Maximilian I, Philip the Fair, and Charles V), whose genealogy is immortalized in another panel.<\/p>\n Featured alongside the Badger story is a letter from 1840 franked with the world’s first stamp issued in England-the famous “Penny Black<\/strong>.” A number of showcases display stamps issued by the Thurn<\/strong> und Taxis<\/strong> family from 1852 to 1866, when postal service on German territory was nationalized by the Kingdom of Prussia, which provided compensation to the Thurn und Taxis for the loss of their office.

\nCornello is in fact the birthplace of the Tasso family, <\/strong>famous for the literary work of Torquato Tasso as well as for the entrepreneurial prowess of its members, founders-and managers-for centuries of the modern European postal service.<\/p>\n
\nOn the upper floor, a series of postal documents such as letters and posters from the 17th-19th centuries.
\nIn the upper room, very interesting for the youngest visitors are: a model of a Piedmontese post station from 1815, a plaster reproduction of a letterbox from 1674 from Portaria<\/strong> (hamlet of Acquasparta, Terni), mailboxes with coats of arms of the Savoy Kingdom from 1850 and the Austro-Hungarian one from 1910 from Ala (Tridentine Venice). The showcases display a miscellany of letters and documents, the result of important donations to the Museum.<\/p>\n
\nIn the showcases and bulletin boards are displayed multiple volumes on literary themes including some beautiful editions of “Gerusalemme liberata<\/strong>.” On the walls are paintings depicting Bernard, Torquato, while placed on a column is a bronze bust of Torquato Tasso on plaster by Attilio Nani, an important artist from Bergamo. The small room on the upper floor entitled “Postal Services and Means of Communication” collects, material from the Historical Museum of Communication<\/p>\nThe hamlet<\/h3>\n
\n<\/strong>Below, you will be able to notice a continuous series of fronts with the characteristic fortification type. Between the first and second curtain of inhabited areas runs the route of the ancient “via Mercatorum,” the defining element of the urban core: stone arches punctuate the various building units, exposed wooden beams serve as roofing on the portico floor and support on the upper floor. Today you can walk along it following its route over several days, stopping at inns and local establishments just as the travelers of the time did, completing your Merchant’s Map.<\/a><\/p>\n
\nFor visitors accompanied by a guide, own or from the museum: \u20ac3 per person<\/p>\n

\nCornello is in fact the birthplace of the Tasso family, <\/strong>famous for the literary work of Torquato Tasso as well as for the entrepreneurial prowess of its members, founders-and managers-for centuries of the modern European postal service.<\/p>\n
\nOn the upper floor, a series of postal documents such as letters and posters from the 17th-19th centuries.
\nIn the upper room, very interesting for the youngest visitors are: a model of a Piedmontese post station from 1815, a plaster reproduction of a letterbox from 1674 from Portaria<\/strong> (hamlet of Acquasparta, Terni), mailboxes with coats of arms of the Savoy Kingdom from 1850 and the Austro-Hungarian one from 1910 from Ala (Tridentine Venice). The showcases display a miscellany of letters and documents, the result of important donations to the Museum.<\/p>\n
\nIn the showcases and bulletin boards are displayed multiple volumes on literary themes including some beautiful editions of “Gerusalemme liberata<\/strong>.” On the walls are paintings depicting Bernard, Torquato, while placed on a column is a bronze bust of Torquato Tasso on plaster by Attilio Nani, an important artist from Bergamo. The small room on the upper floor entitled “Postal Services and Means of Communication” collects, material from the Historical Museum of Communication<\/p>\nThe hamlet<\/h3>\n
\n<\/strong>Below, you will be able to notice a continuous series of fronts with the characteristic fortification type. Between the first and second curtain of inhabited areas runs the route of the ancient “via Mercatorum,” the defining element of the urban core: stone arches punctuate the various building units, exposed wooden beams serve as roofing on the portico floor and support on the upper floor. Today you can walk along it following its route over several days, stopping at inns and local establishments just as the travelers of the time did, completing your Merchant’s Map.<\/a><\/p>\n
\nFor visitors accompanied by a guide, own or from the museum: \u20ac3 per person<\/p>\n
