The museum is in charge of the largest public collection of glass Christmas ornaments in the world, a collection that numbers more than 15 thousand pieces. However, the collection also takes in contemporary production and historic ornaments from the beginning of the 20th century, the First Republic and the socialist era. The exposition tells the story of the journey taken by Christmas ornaments to the promised land over the sea, the United States of America having been the most significant customer of these fragile goods. For this reason the exhibits are installed in the shape of varied sea waves, there is also an ocean steamer or spectacular skyscrapers.
