The Textile Museum is the largest cultural center in Italy dedicated to the appreciation of ancient and contemporary textiles, costume and fashion. Prato's textile district has its origins in the Middle Ages and still stands today as the most important in Europe. The Museum's headquarters is in the restored premises of the former Campolmi Cimatoria, the last major textile factory of the 19th and 20th centuries within the medieval city walls of Prato and today an important tourist destination for lovers of industrial archaeology. The Museum's holdings consist of an outstanding collection of artifacts documenting the art of textiles and fashion from the past to the present day. The Museum continuously renews its contents by displaying the collections on a rotating basis and organizing temporary exhibitions.
