The history of Tesino itinerant merchants

The Museo Per Via – Museo Tesino delle Stampe e dell'Ambulantato tells the story of Tesino itinerant merchants, travellers and traders who journeyed across Europe for centuries, selling prints, books and works of art. Its establishment in Pieve Tesino commemorates the itinerant merchants who travelled the world with their print cases. In this way, the museum brings together two perspectives on the same story: the merchants’ long-distance travels and the sale of their works. The period spanning several centuries makes clear that this was a longstanding trading tradition, not just a series of individual journeys.

Guided tours can be arranged for groups and individual visitors, including outside regular opening hours. Make arrangements before your arrival if you are planning such a tour. This lets you include the story of the Tesino merchants in your travel plans without conflating a museum visit with other historical highlights.

Birthplace and family history

The Museo Casa De Gasperi is located in the birthplace of Alcide De Gasperi and opened to the public in 2006. The house anchors the memory of De Gasperi in a specific biographical setting. The museum’s opening is a historical point of reference in its own right; unlike the Museo Per Via, its focus is not the history of travelling merchants.

Villa Daziaro is the historic residence of a family whose success was connected with the Tesino print trade. This family history adds another perspective to the story of trade, distinct from the journeys of itinerant merchants: it links economic success with a historic residence. The local history can thus be understood through both the memory of an individual and a family’s connection to the print trade.

Gardens, plant diversity and events

The Giardino d’Europa and the Arboreto del Tesino serve as venues for social and cultural events. At the same time, the diversity of plant species symbolises uniqueness within diversity. This means the variety of plants is not merely descriptive; it also conveys the symbolic message of the site. This focus differs from the museums’ historical themes: it is both a venue for events and a place that embodies the significance attributed to plant diversity.

Golf at Colle Coldanè

The Tesino Golf Club La Farfalla covers approximately 40 hectares above and around Colle Coldanè. The course is described as a mountain links course, with its distinctive character shaped by the natural terrain. The club is considered suitable for players of all skill levels. If golf is part of your trip, the approximate area, the location around Colle and the described terrain provide useful points of reference. This makes it easy to distinguish this focus from the museums and the garden: golf is all about the course, the terrain and its stated suitability for players of different skill levels.
