History

The Museo delle Grigne is the first local museum in Province of Como, created in the 1930s by the priest, Giovanni Battista Rocca, in order to let the public know the peculiarities of the territory.

Buildings

The museum is divided into two buildings, the new seat in Villa Clotilde garden (inaugurated in April 2016) and a space on the first floor of Villa Clotilde.

Administration

The Museo delle Grigne has been managed by the Associazione Amici del Museo delle Grigne Onlus since 1990. It is part of the museum system of the Province of Lecco.
