In Ghilarza, the house where Antonio Gramsci lived from 1898 to 1911 is now home to a living museum—open to dialogue and learning—dedicated to the memory and thought of a Sardinian intellectual who fought for freedom until the very end.

FROM GHILARZA TO THE WORLD: ANTONIO GRAMSCI

Antonio Gramsci is one of the most widely translated intellectuals of the twentieth century. A founding figure of the Communist Party of Italy, he is best known for his Prison Notebooks, written during his imprisonment. His critical analysis of society, culture, and power profoundly shaped political, social, and cultural thought, influencing generations of intellectuals and scholars. Today, Gramsci’s legacy continues to be studied and debated around the world.

THE ANTONIO GRAMSCI HOUSE MUSEUM

The House Museum is a place of memory, culture, and reflection, open to anyone wishing to gain a deeper understanding of the life and legacy of one of the twentieth century’s leading intellectuals.

The museum exhibition housed within the Casa Museo, recently enriched with new materials and content, allows visitors to explore documents, photographs, objects, and personal testimonies, immersing them in a journey through the life of Antonio Gramsci, his family, and the cultural environment in which the Sardinian intellectual was raised.

GHILARZA

Every two years, scholars, researchers, and students come together to explore Gramscian thought in greater depth and reflect on cultural, social, and contemporary political issues.

VISITOR TESTIMONIALS

Eleonora
The house museum is beautiful, well organised, and carefully maintained. The young woman in charge that morning was exceptionally kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. A place well worth visiting to gain a deeper understanding of one of the great figures in our political history.
Mauro
You do not arrive at Gramsci’s house by chance. The museum alone is worth the visit. The guided tour was conducted with great professionalism by a knowledgeable and well-prepared guide. The passion and sensitivity with which she recounted the life of Nino Gramsci truly deserve applause.
Annamaria
Standing just a few inches away from his glasses, reflecting on what they allowed him to write, to see, and to understand about the vast and terrible world, is a deeply moving experience. The guide’s proud passion was extraordinary and admirable. Sincere thanks.
Lorenzo
A visit that is not only moving, but essential — especially for a Sardinian. A way to retrace the different stages in the thought of one of the most insightful and engaged thinkers of the twentieth century.
