The museum will showcase a series of more than 10,000 historical photographs and over 20 ice cream making machines. Adding more to the mouth-watering museum experience is a fantastic tasting session. The museum also exhibits the first written recipe and primitive gelato making machines made out of iron and wood.
History of gelato goes back to the 12th century BC. Nevertheless, the museum is dedicated to the history, culture and technology of gelato through eons of time.
The $2 million museum will be open to public in September in Bologna. However, people are allowed to make advance bookings to organize free tours from the mid week of August. The interactive tour will take you through three themes – evolution of the frozen dessert treat, history of gelato production and technology over time and its consumption.
