Museo Internazionale delle Marionette Antonio Pasqualino

The Museo internazionale delle marionette Antonio Pasqualino was established in 1975 by the Associazione per la conservazione delle tradizioni popolari, led by Antonio Pasqualino and Janne Vibaek. The museum has been named after Antonio Pasqualino since 1995, the year of his death. Its extensive collection, which includes around 5,000 objects and consists predominantly of marionettes and puppets, also comprises a number of ethnographic artifacts, among them a group of twentieth-century wooden masks from Guatemala, Mexico, Peru, Paraguay, and Argentina.
