Giovanni Scaramagna, a prominent figure in Trieste society during the first half of the twentieth century, was a passionate collector of documents and art objects related to the history of the city. After his death, the Foundation dedicated to him continuing his work, purchasing new materials and dealing with the conservation and restoration of the objects. The collection is housed in a neoclassical palace, already home to the family, and includes heterogeneous pieces, including prints, maps, manuscripts, books, furniture, paintings, coins and miniatures.
