Scientific instruments: from the wardrobe to the box and vice versa - Heritage

Go to:  ALL SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS  ||  HOMEPAGE

Here below are a few graphs, which provide an overview of the richness of the Technical-Scientific Heritage conserved at Italian University Museums. Historic-scientific instruments can be viewed per university and according to chronology, selected for digitalised cataloguing under the Miur project of the Network of Italian University Museums, in collaboration with the Central Institute for Cataloguing and Documentation.
