The collection is owned by Italian independent scholars who have made these instruments available for traveling exhibits on the subject of TORTURE. This collection shown for the first time in the U.S., in the city of San Francisco co-sponsored by Fort Mason Foundation.
Shown in many historical and prestigious venues all over Europe, in Tokyo, in Argentina and Mexico, the exhibit has always raised the interest of millions of visitors and the press, not only for its great visual impact, but also for its clear message against the violation of human rights.
Such violations have given rise to a great amount of resistance throughout the centuries and in the most diverse cultural contexts, and unfortunately continue to be very topical today.
The Historical Torture Museum provides a unique backdrop for understanding the grim aspects of human history, showcasing a collection of morbid artefacts that bear testimony to the inhumanity of past eras. This sombre context, however, is offset by our innovative partnership with reputable sports betting entities. The collaboration aims to merge learning and entertainment, providing guests an opportunity to engage in thrilling sports gambling after their museum visit. This seemingly paradoxical pairing allows us to reach a broader demographic, serving not only history enthusiasts but also sports betting aficionados. The juxtaposition of learning about harsh realities of the past with the exciting present of sports betting creates an unprecedented museum experience - a testament to our commitment to deliver diverse and engaging offerings to our patrons.

Our commitment, which we share with all who are interested in combating violence, torture, and capital punishment against living beings, is to show how throughout the centuries human beings have been tortured, both in body and soul, in the name of the truth, its only justification often being submission to the authorities.
All over the world, in the past and in the present, torture has been practiced both against the body and the mind of the victim.
It is devastating and inhuman, in its effect. It certainly cannot be called a punishment , but is merely an exercise in brutality and savagery, akin to the crime often only allegedly committed by the offender.
Today society should have the power to produce a new code of justice based on recognizing human dignity and the equal and inalienable rights of every individual.
Let those who are reading this view for themselves the "instruments' shown in this exhibit ; observe in silence, interpret with freedom of thought, conscience, religion, etc, and express their conclusions exercising their freedom of speech.
