This is a unique example, in Italy, of a Futurist museum conceived by a Futurist. The collection includes some 3,000 exhibits bequeathed by the artist to the city: paintings, drawings, cloth and buxus patchwork, collages, posters, furniture, toys and applied artworks, and provides an excellent overview of and insight into the whole Italian Futurist movement.

The reopening of this museum has completed a museum route through the historic centre of Rovereto, which includes other important attractions such as the War Museum and the Museo Civico, enabling visitors to follow a trail that combines history and innovation, the starting - or finishing - point of which is Mario Botta's Mart.
