About & History: The Toy Horse Museum is the one and only museums in the world dedicated to toy horses The Museum is hosted in what used to be the stables of Tornese, a famous, several time world-champion trotter in the 1950s. In 1969, Pietro Catelli, founder of Artsana Group and "Cavaliere del Lavoro" for his merits as an enterpreneur, purchased the building and surrounding land to establish the Artsana headquarters. On 14 April 2000, on the occasion of his 80th birthday, he decided to leave a unique gift to his company and local community by inaugurating the Museum, which hosts his collection of toy horses in the historical stables that once belonged to Tornese.
