EVERYWHERE IS WOOD, ON 4 AND ON 2 WHEELS.

September 14, 2022

even the anthem of italy says so: everywhere is legnano! pride and territorial know-how in the exhibition to be opened on september 24

Being mentioned as the only city in the Hymn of Italy is quite a responsibility for Legnano: could we, as a deeply territorial museum, ever pretend nothing is happening and not celebrate Legnano's ingenuity, history, culture and know-how at every opportunity?

If you know us, you will already know the answer: absolutely not! That's why, one year after the exhibition "Where There's People There's Velca," the Museum is presenting in the Red Room an exhibition dedicated to another city excellence: the Legnano Bicycles

From Sept. 24 to Oct. 3, in fact, we will host the exhibition "Ovunque è Legnano, from Legnano to the world on two wheels," created at the behest of theFriends of Museo Fratelli Cozzi association with journalist Paolo Girotti and thanks to the support and work of numerous local entities: the Ticino Olona Community Foundation, Ugo Colombo Hombre Vertical association, U.S. Legnanese 1913 and the City of Legnano.

Many thanks to Pirelli & C. S.p.A. and the Pirelli Foundation for the use of archival images, such as the wonderful one you see at the beginning of the article!

Also, inthis article you will find a few shots we wanted to take while taking the bicycles between the cars in the Museum-we just couldn't resist!

The exhibition will also be an opportunity to fuse together the passion for Alfa Romeo cars with the rediscovery of gentle mobility.
