Centro Espositivo di Scienze Naturali [Natural Science Exhibition Centre]

The centre displays various specimens of stuffed birds, exhibited in a room in the basement of the Torre del Lago Puccini Civic Centre. Remarkable for their beauty are several specimens inhabiting Lake Massaciuccoli, as well as two flamingos, a white swan, a crane, a cormorant, and a blue, a white and a red heron. The exhibition facilities were realised thanks to the donation of Elio Gragnani.
