Abstract

The Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory preserves an important historical heritage consisting of archival documents, ancient books and scientific instrumentation. Over the years, attention to the preservation and enhancement of this heritage has grown, and there are numerous initiatives aimed at the public in this area. In particular, the presence of the piano that belonged to Maja Einstein has allowed the realization of events that combine music, history and astronomy.
