Bora Museum (Trieste)

The messiest museum in the world, the smallest museum in Trieste!

The Wind House or Magazzino dei Venti – Progetto Bora Museum of Trieste is the space for wind and imagination. It is the laboratory, the showcase of an idea: to create in Trieste the a Wind Museum. A “museum in progress” to become familiar with the project, in its intimate and cosy dimension. A small documentation centre, where you will discover books and Aeolian curiosities from Trieste (for example the famous Bora’s ropes) and the rest of the world (for example the “pindekan” of Bali). In the Wind House you can visit three sections: the archives of the Bora Museum, which is a small library with audiovisual multimedia material; the archives of the Polli family that preserves different materials collected by a great scholar of the north-east wind, prof. Silvio Polli; the archives of World Winds that includes an amusing collection of winds of different geographical areas in personalized containers.
