A fascinating tribute to the legacy of Giambattista Bodoni and the history of printing as both an art and a science. Tucked within the Palazzo della Pilotta, this space invites you into the meticulous world of type, design, and book production. Seeing the original font stamps and engraved plates up close was incredible; the level of craftsmanship and precision is still jaw-dropping. The wooden printing press on display, paired with original type cases and finished works, gives powerful context to the revolution of print. Every artifact here, from letterforms to copper engravings, feels alive with intention. The dark, beautifully lit library room adds an almost sacred atmosphere, as if the books themselves are whispering stories from the past. Whether you're a design lover, typographer, historian, or just someone curious about how ideas were once shaped and spread, the Museo Bodoniano is a captivating experience that connects you directly to the origins of the printed word.

I’ve been to the museum complex in Parma many times in the past but had never noticed this small place tucked in the courtyard. It is a long hall dedicated to the history of printing, the Bodoni typeface, and the man who designed if.

Altro segno di speranza e di fiducia... “Labor ipse voluptas” (Il lavoro stesso è piacere)... potrebbe essere questo il motto latino che celebra in modo compiuto il nuovo allestimento del Museo Bodoniano (Giovanni Battista Bodoni, Saluzzo 1740 - Parma 1813), che sarà visitabile dal prossimo aprile, pandemia permettendo. Il nero è il colore dominante di questi ambienti, proprio come l’inchiostro che rende imperitura l’arte grafica dell’illustre stampatore. Il rinnovato spazio espositivo si snoda in quattro sezioni. La prima illustra i legami del tipografo con Parma e l’Europa: un tavolo multimediale consente di scoprire gli intensi rapporti del Ducato con le corti europee dell’epoca, il contesto sociale e economico del periodo, il suo percorso culturale e l’incontro con il neoclassicismo. La seconda sezione (La fabbrica del libro) - la più corposa - è organizzata in quattro momenti che celebrano il certosino lavoro del tipografo nella creazione dei caratteri. Successivamente i visitatori accedono nella sezione dedicata alla stampa e alla legatura e possono ammirare la riproduzione di un torchio del 1940. L’ultima sezione è intitolata “Il mito di Bodoni”: in questi spazi sono raccolti numerosi volumi che testimoniano la pregevolezza della sua attività artistica. Per documentare la modernità dell’influente utilizzo e rielaborazione dei tipi bodoniani nell’arte grafica, il pubblico può vedere ricercate immagini su monitor che confermano la rivoluzionaria innovazione intrapresa dal...

OK so once you've had enough prosciutto, parmigiano, and tortellini (note: you haven't) you should really visit this little local gem of a museum dedicated to Bodoni, the first modern font designer who's till in your standard set of fonts on most computers. I had to email the museum host who was super kind to show me around. Lots of wonderful prints of Italian literature classics and information on the history of typography and the typography lab Mr....
