Top 10 Specialty Museums in Bologna, Emilia-Romagna
While crowds of tourists fill Venice, Florence and Rome, Bologna remains relatively quiet in comparison. This medieval university town is charming, historic and fun to explore… and you'll find Bologna's local cuisine is light-years away from the American deli meat bearing the city's name.

The museum is quite a display of history of the water powered machines all the way to the modern age. A lot of the displays show a beautiful open design to explain how things work. I enjoyed showing this to my daughter who thoroughly enjoyed the museum as well. A lot of the machines could be activated as well to see how they would work in real life. Unfortunately the 3rd floor was closed, but despite that it was well worth a visit to see the history of industrial bologna at display.
