FGM - Fondazione Guglielmo Marconi

Welcome to the official site of Guglielmo Marconi Foundation, established in 1938.

The head office of the Foundation is in Villa Griffone, the place where the Bolognese inventor began to develop the system of wireless telegraphy which then spread throughout the world. Villa Griffone is located in Pontecchio Marconi, about 15 km from Bologna, Italy. The garden and the rooms of the villa are home to the Marconi Museum which is dedicated to the origins and development of radio communications.
