Set the scene.
Casa Bondi is a seventeenth-century townhouse within Gozo’s Citadel. It became the home of the Gozo Museum of Archaeology.
Here’s the twist.
Its exhibitions followed the island’s cultural history from prehistory into the early modern period. The building and the objects therefore belonged to different timelines.
Why it still matters.
That contrast is useful: the age of a museum is not the age of its collection. A much older object can be protected inside a later home.
