The town's most famous son, the satirical poet Giuseppe Giusti (1809–1850), was born in this elegant town house just off the main square. The building has been preserved as a national museum: original furnishings, family portraits, manuscripts, and a small library of nineteenth-century editions of his work.
Giusti was a sharp voice against Austrian rule in pre-unification Italy, and his political verses still appear in Italian school anthologies. The museum is small, free, and rarely busy; opening hours are limited so check before making a special trip.
