Built as the country house of the noble Craveri Family, scholars and naturalists of the late 19th century, the museum has become one of the oldest in town and in Piedmont, thanks to the family’s private collection.
Today the exhibition consists of many sections, distributed on three floors of the building. The museum also houses a multimedia scientific library, an ecological laboratory and a greenhouse of succulent plants. Since 1859 the museum is also the seat of one of the most important archives of meteorological survey of the entire Piedmont.
