In 1841 the  musician Gaspare Spontini ordered the building of this house devoted to the education of girls, as witnessed by the inscription above the main entrance.

After his death it housed the Reggenza delle Opere Pie, the Town Hall andthe Primary School.

On September 6^th 1951, on the occasion of the centenary of Spontini’s death, it has been transformed into a Museum.

Here you can find some of the furniture, both hadwritten and printed scores, letters and important records.
