Housed in the Palazzo Castellani, an 11th century 'castle', the Museo Galileo is heir a five century-long tradition of scientific collecting, which has its origins in the central importance assigned to scientists and scientific instruments by the Medici and Lorraine families.

Also in the exhibit is his digitus impudicus <p><a href="http://www.lightsmithy.com/collections/regions/italy/museo-galileo/20121004-IMG_1578-single.php" title="Museo Galileo"><img src="http://www.lightsmithy.com/collections/regions/italy/museo-galileo/thumbnails/20121004-IMG_1578.jpg" width="350" height="467" alt="" /></a></p><p>.
