This collection was bought by the Count Cozio di Salabue, and chenged owners many times, to arrive finally at the liutaio Giuseppe Fiorini from Bologna, which gave it as a present to the city of Cremona in 1930.
A learning hall presents the various steps to creat a violin ( aso with Braille signes) and a video on the art of Liuteria.
