One of the highlights mentioned by visitors is the section dedicated to Ferrara's role in the Resistance movement during World War II. This local focus helps connect the broader historical narrative to the city's own experiences.
However, some visitors point out that the museum could benefit from more English translations, as much of the information is primarily in Italian. This can be a drawback for international tourists who may struggle to fully appreciate the exhibits without a strong grasp of the language.
The museum's size is modest, which some find allows for a focused and manageable visit, while others wish for more extensive displays. The staff is generally described as helpful and knowledgeable, though interactions may be limited due to language barriers.
