Accademia Tadini, one of the most precious and old museum in Lombardia, is located really close to the lake and the historical centre of Lovere, in a nice Neoclassical Palace, built by conte Luigi Tadini in early XIX century for his collection. Here you can find two masterpieces by Antonio Canova, and some paintings from well known artists (e.g. Jacopo Bellini, Bordon, Campi, Palma il Giovane, Tiepolo, Hayez, Oprandi), and also some nice works by unknown artists. There is also a collection of old weapons, archeological evidences and wonderful porcelain (China, Sèvres, Meissen, Vienna and Capodimonte). Good outfitting. Nice guides. Don't miss the little church where Faustino Tadini (the young son of Luigi) is buried. Very good place for art lovers. Highly recommended.…

i traveled from Bergamo to view a specific painting in this museum and was pleasantly surprised by the variety of artwork available. The main floors do feel a little outdated, but the upper floor with contemporary art is new and bright - displaying many beautiful paintings by artists from the region. Artwork on the main floors is briefly described in Italian and English on pages located in each room. The staff was especially welcoming and helpful. In particular, Andrea Petteni saved my neck when an accidence halted all bus service out of Lovere and he gave me a ride (almost) to Bergamo - far beyond the service expected by museum staff. It was a MOST memorable visit.…
