WOW Spazio Fumetto
WOW Spazio Fumetto is an art museum in Milan dedicated to comics and animation. Its building began as a tram depot in 1926. By the 1960s, Motta had turned the depot into a confectionery factory, which operated until 1985. Milan later revitalised the area with a park and cultural uses.
The Franco Fossati Foundation shaped the museum around the collection of journalist and collector Franco Fossati. His collection became the foundation of the exhibitions. In 2010, the foundation received the building, establishing a permanent home for comics and animation. The ground floor presents a permanent exhibition, while the first floor hosts temporary showcases.
More than 500,000 objects span records, magazine publications, and albums across the collection. A comic library holds over 9,000 albums and magazines. Workshops, cultural events, and exhibitions keep this former factory active as a place for learning and creativity.
