NIKOLA TESLA
A Man From The Future

This exhibition was born as an idea of the Serbian Youth Cultural Association (Associazione Culturale Giovanile Serba - ACGS). It is promoted by the General Consulate of the Republic of Serbia in Trieste and realized in collaboration with the Nikola Tesla Museum from Belgrade.

The technical-scientific exhibition, which is conceived as a one-of-a-kind project, aims to show the life and work of the great Serbian genius, one of the greatest inventors of the twentieth century.

In honor of Tesla, the great inventor and scientist, this exhibition will very symbolically be held in Trieste - the "City of Science". This is precisely where one can feel a reflection of the multicultural spirit and the atmosphere that was also a characteristic mark of the time and places in which Tesla lived and created.

Nikola Tesla
MUSEUM

The Nikola Tesla Museum in Belgrade was founded in 1952, and in 1955 it was opened to the public. It contains Tesla’s legacy that counts more than 200.000 personal objects, documents, writings, drawings and patents. The funerary urn with the ashes of Nikola Tesla was transferred to the Museum in 1957, and has remained there since.

In 2003, UNESCO included Tesla’s archive in the Memory of the World Register, as part of the documentary heritage of mankind, which represents

the highest form of protection of a cultural property.

In addition to museological activities within the institution, the Nikola Tesla Museum has been organizing guest exhibitions around the world for many years with great success. Only in 2018, 2019 and 2020, exhibitions were organized in China, Japan, Cyprus, Greece and Italy, with a significant number of visitors and public response.

In this regard, the museum has developed a professional team whose main task is to set up an exhibition and train the staff of the host organizers to guide visitors through the exhibition and handle working models.
