Museo del Cognome
L’unico museo al mondo dedicato alla genealogia
Hello friends, I am happy to announce the release of my book “Come si chiamava il nonno di tuo nonno? – Genealogia e storia familiare”
Here is an interview by Gianpaolo D’Elia who came to visit the museum. We talked about genealogy and more. Don’t miss it at this link Migrazioni e Genealogia: da Ellis Island (New York) al Museo del cognome (Padula)
The Museum opens up again on June 1. Reservations required.
