BonaMuseum is housed in the Istituto Eugenio Bona in Biella, the school founded in 1913 by the wool entrepreneur to train technicians and office staff for the area's textile companies. The museum, set up next to the school's library, holds two working looms and machinery and instruments donated over time by Biella entrepreneurs, including Zegna, on which generations of students practised textile disciplines. An educational trail weaving together the school's history with that of the Biella wool district.
