The Natural History Museum of Milan was founded in 1838 and since 1893 it has occupied the place that it is today. The place is a cultural and scientific institution that depends on the government of the city and it was born when the naturalists De Cristofori and Jan donated their collections to the government. Actually, Jan was the first director of the place. Currently it´s the most important natural history museum in Italy and, also, it´s considered one of the most important in Europe. Subseuently, in 1943, the place was destroyed because of the bombings it suffered in the Second World War and, despite the damages being important, when the war ended it was rebuilt and it reopened in 1952.

The Merletto Museum is one of them, which is located in the Gothic-style palace that, at first, used to be a school in the city´s square. The museum presents different fabrics, the majority of them laces, that were made throughout the years with a technique that, currently, has been lost with the passing of time. There are laces that were made by nuns from the different Venetian convents in medieval times during the 16th century.
