About

The University History Museum of the University of Pavia (Italian: Museo per la Storia dell'Università) is a museum displaying memorabilia related to the history of the university, particularly in the fields of physics and medicine, when students were taught by prominent scholars such as Antonio Scarpa and Camillo Golgi or the physicist Alessandro Volta.

The museum was founded in 1936 and is currently located at Palazzo Centrale. It currently forms the University of Pavia museum network, along with five other museums — the Natural History Museum, Museum of Electrical Technology, Museum of Archeology, Museum Camillo Golgi and Museum of Mineralogy.
