Bergamo is a city that wants to be discovered: rich in art and culture counts among its excellences important museums

Museums Bergamo. This stunning city boasts several interesting attractions, including major monuments and museums.

Lombardy will be the starting point for memorable itineraries focused on cultural tourism.

Bergamo counts with the Picture Gallery of the Accademia Carrara, supplied over the years by acquisitions and donations. Here you will find artworks by Botticelli, Bellini, Mantegna, Raffaello, Tiepolo, and Canaletto.

If you love paintings, consider visiting the museums in Bergamo displaying the collections of the GAMeC, which promotes emerging artists. By visiting Piazza della Cittadella explore the Natural Sciences and Archaeology Museums. The former is distinctly educational while the latter takes visitors to the time when ancient peoples inhabited this land. 

Tourism in Bergamo gets you to the Botanical Garden, with an exhaustive study of local flora. There is also a permanent exhibition on the Opera Pia Misericordia Maggiore building dedicated to Gaetano Donizetti since 1906.

The province offers a few unique museums in Lombardy's artistic landscape, like the MAT in Clusone with rare clock models, the one in the Gandino Basilica and the Dalmine Nativity, plus the Harlequin House in San Giovanni Bianco and the Schilpario Mining Park.
