The Torre Pellice
Waldensian
Museum
is the leading institution of a series of museums, temples and historical sites in the Pellice, Chisone and Germanasca valleys. They comprise the Waldensian Valleys Eco-historical Museum System. In over a hundred years of existence, the Torre Pellice Museum has been modified several times. It is now structured in two parts. The historical section shows a reconstruction of the events relating to Waldensian history from the Middle Ages to the present time.
The ethnographic section displays daily life activities and settings in the 1800s and 1900s. From time to time, temporary exhibitions on Waldensian history, the Waldensian Valleys and Italian and European Protestantism can be viewed in Foundation's exhibition halls.
 The Museum is part of the Turin and Piedmont Museums Season Pass Network, Season pass holders have unlimited and free access to temporary exhibitions, permanent collections and activities organized by the museums and sites that are part of the network. Season passes are on sale at the offices of the Waldensian Cultural Centre and the Museum during regular hours; they are also available at all the locations that are part of the network.
