Situated in the district of Castello, one of the oldest district of Lecco, the Palace is a precious building dating back to the late 18th century and today the house of Musei Civici: the Archaeological Museum (eight rooms with relics from all over the province, dating from the Medium Paleolithic period to the High Middle Ages and Celtic grave goods from the First and Second Iron Age and the early medieval goldsmith works); the Museum of Natural History (which exhibits in twelve rooms
zoological, mineralogical, malacological and palaeontological collections among which is the extremely rare “Lariosauro”); the History Museum (which displays collections regarding the contemporary history of the Lecco area, divided in the Risorgimento Room, the Lecco Industry Virtual Room and the Resistance Room). Opened in January 2005, the Planetarium is situated in a completely new wing of the Palace and it represents one of the best structures of this type in Italy. The room shows an exhibition of astronomical equipment (binoculars, telescopes, etc.) and
reproduces the sky as it appears to the naked eye, with extreme realism and charm. But the heart of the Planetarium is the computerized projection system of the latest generation which can project the image of 3200 stars on a dome which acts as a screen. The Planetarium organizes projections, conferences and observations for adults and students. Every year April it hosts the National Astronautics Convention.
