    Museum for the history of peasant movements, anti-fascism and resistance in the countryside
    The Cervi Museum is located in the lower Reggio plain, between the municipalities of Gattatico and Campegine, and is set in the farmhouse where the Cervi family arrived in 1934. Peasant sharecroppers, the Cervi make choices that will prove fundamental in the early 1930s both in production and in the consolidation of a strong anti-fascist orientation.
    Shot together with Quarto Camurri in retaliation in December 1943, the story of Genoeffa and Alcide's seven sons immediately assumes a strong symbolic value, while their home - during the Second World War, a point of reference and concrete help for anti-fascists, draft evaders, and for those who opposed the war - it becomes the preferred destination of all those who recognize themselves in the values of anti-fascism and democracy.
    Casa Cervi becomes "Museum for the history of peasant movements, anti-fascism and resistance in the countryside" after a spontaneous process of transformation that ended with the rearrangement in 2002.
    The Cervi Museum today allows you to rediscover the history of this family, through new and constantly updated tour itineraries, both within the rooms of the Museum and throughout the territory

        In line with its mission, the Museum promotes research, studies and initiatives of a historical, ethnographic and environmental nature. Thematic guided tours, integrated itineraries with other museums and institutes, thematic, didactic and theatrical workshops, audiovisual insights, educational exhibitions, training for teachers and students, possibility to agree on in-depth topics with the teachers, these in synthesis are the possibilities designed for the world of schools, Quadrisfera 2as to constitute the new didactic frontier that the Cervi Institute intends to create.

        At Casa Cervi the old tools of working in the fields coexist with multimedia technologies: since 2005 the Quadrisfera has been in operation, an engaging installation that "envelops" the visitor in the history of the 1900s. To see, because it is impossible to describe it.
        Next to the complex there is a tower equipped with a meteorological radar which is part of the ARPAER weather monitoring service.

          The weather radar of the Cervi museum in Gattatico (RE) becomes, on the initiative of the museum, welcomed by Arpa, a "permanent distributor of resistant culture", through a foray into ultra-contemporary art, curated by the FX Collective, which transforms the base of the radar in an original installation, where the context is actively and indissolubly involved in the work.
          The collective of artists has recently completed the intervention on this huge tower, depicting many witnesses of modern resistance together with the faces of the seven Cervi brothers, attesting to the relevance of the civil commitment of the Cervi family. In this distributor of ideas, where to draw to find energy, you can recognize among the many figures who have marked the history of man in different fields: Nelson Mandela, Giovanni Falcone, Malala, Miriam Makeba, Gandhi, Rita Levi Montalcini but also Don Gallo, Maria Montessori and many others.
