“A small but worthwhile museum”
Sep 2017
This is a tiny museum of life around Gradara through the centuries. It may be difficult for disabled people or children in buggies but it is worth a visit if you can manage it. Some of the displays may seem a bit gruesome as there are exhibits of instruments of torture. But it is also part of life at that time so has to be taken into consideration. It is well worth going as part of the Gradara experience. The descriptions are in several languages too.
“Small but interesting museum”
Jul 2017
the museum shows a lot of the history of the castle and it's surroundings. The torture exhibition is impressive. One also gets a good impression of the life of the farmers before world war 2.

Although the museum is not very big it is well equipped and well preserved. There is plenty to see with descriptions of the articles etc. It gives an insight into how people lived in the past. The exhibition includes medieval arms and instruments of torture, certainly not a nice thought to think that they really used them! All in all we found it very interesting although a bit expensive for what it is.
