GONZAGA, 1925 ...
Gonzaga is the place of origin
of the family under whose rule
Mantua achieved its greatest
splendour in art and culture in
the fifteenth century. Today it
is also known throughout the
world for the production of
materials for a famous
educational approach: the
Montessori Method.
It all began with a meeting
between Dr. Maria Montessori
and Donna Maria Maraini

broadcast on the BBC
Italian Service, 1950

Guerrieri Gonzaga, her great
friend and admirer. Donna
Maraini often entertained Dr.
Montessori at her villa in
Palidano, a village which is
close to Gonzaga.
This led to the first production
of Montessori materials
according to specifications
given by Maria Montessori
herself to Ernesto Bassoli & Figli,
who were office furniture
manufacturers at the time.
These enlightened
enterpreneurs showed such
appreciation for the new
educational method that they
changed the name of the firm
to Società Anonima per il
Materiale Montessori.
Cesare Baroni who, as a young
joiner, came to work at the
factory in its early years, gave
a fundamental contribution
which left its mark on a reality
that has been continually
evolving since the postwar
period.
The Gonzaga factory has
always worked with the
scientific support of highly
qualified Montessorians:
Giuliana Sorge, one of Maria
Montessori’s disciples; Maria
Antonietta Paolini, also one of
Maria Montessori’s disciples
and collaborators, and director
of training of the International
Montessori Centre of Perugia
4
for many, many years; Camillo
Grazzini, a director of training
of the International Centre for
Montessori Studies Foundation
of Bergamo.
In 1963, Cesare Baroni and
Giuseppe Marangon started a
new company called Baroni &
Marangon which later, in 1975,
became a cooperative business
enterprise under the name of
Gonzagarredi. It was as
Gonzagarredi that the company
became known internationally,
thereby giving an important
contribution to making the
Montessori materials better
known throughout the world.

Today, Gonzagarredi is also an
important centre for research and
production of equipment for schools,
cultural centres and social services.
Its innovative strategies stem from the
initiative of its president, Giuseppe
Marangon, who has managed to
combine an artisan inheritance and
spirit with modern technology.
The Montessori materials from the
Gonzaga factory are recognized and
approved by the Association Montessori
Internationale, the international
organisation founded by Maria
Montessori and based in Amsterdam,
The Netherlands.
Providing ideas and educational
materials, Gonzagarredi contributes to
the creation of new schools based on
Maria Montessori’s educational
principles.
The Gonzagarredi research centre is also
developing its activities with:
• continuous pedagogical research in
connection with the most up-to-date
cultural and scientific teaching methods;
• the promotion and sponsorship of
research in the field of teaching;
•the presence of its own expert in the UNI
commission responsible for defining
school equipment standards.
Expert carpenters work in the production
laboratory where their skilled
workmanship ensures the highest degree
of accuracy from the very beginning of the
production process through the finishing
touches.
Gonzagarredi is equipped with an ISO 9001
quality control system that requires the
application of strict procedures in order
to guarantee high quality standards, from
the planning stage through to production,
delivery and customer care service.

Practical Life Activities
The objects that are used for
practical life have no
scientific purpose. They are
the objects used where a child
lives and which he sees
employed in his own home,
but they are especially made
to a size that he can use.
