Founded by the music publisher Carl Schmidl, the museum is a treasure chest that tells the history of theatre and music through costumes, posters, photographs, musical instruments and documents. The Schmidl Alphabet proposes an original path that declines, from A to Z, the museum's multifaceted collections, revealing their uniqueness and historical value.

Collaborations and cultural vision
The press conference was attended by prominent figures such as the Councillor for Culture and Tourism Policies, George Rossi, and the curator of the Museum, Stefano Bianchi, supported by the co-curators Elizabeth Buffulini, Emilio Medici e Cristina ZacchinaCouncillor Rossi underlined:
“Trieste stands out for its excellent cultural tourism, with 650 visitors to its museums in 2024. The Schmidl exhibition represents a further step in a journey that aims to enhance our historical and artistic heritage.”

A Journey into Theatrical Memory

The exhibition, curated with skill and passion, extends up to the 4 May 2025 and is part of the program of «Schmidl Monday», which will offer thematic insights to discover previously unpublished details of the museum's heritage.

Practical information
The exhibition can be visited at the Sala Selva of Palazzo Gopcevich (via Rossini 4) during the museum's opening hours:

  • From Tuesday to Sunday: 10: 00 - 17: 00
  • Free admission

Collateral projects and history of the museum

Made with the contribution of professionals such as Matthew Bartoli (graphics and layout), Artgroup (print materials), and directors such as Diego Cenetimepo e Alessio Bozzer (films), the exhibition reflects a long tradition that began in 1924.
