Technology
Fundación Telefónica has also been entrusted with the conservation and management of Telefónica’s Historical-Technological Heritage, considered to be one of most important in the world. Its pieces and equipment offer a global vision of the origin and development of telecommunications over time. This unique collection is notable for its size as well as its ability to show the development of telephone systems. It offers an informative and pleasant explanation, specially geared for small children, at the Museum of Telecommunications in Spain and at the Telefónica Memory Nucleus in Brazil.
While their facilities are being renovated in accordance with the criteria of the new guidelines for museums, until its reopening in 2009, the Museum of Telecommunications continued active in educational work throughout the past year. For example, it organized on-site educational activities at Madrid schools through Museomóvil, a program that has already involved 35,917 students. In addition, the museum has remained open on the Internet, where it has been visited by more than 90,000 users.
Finally, since 2002 Fundación Telefónica has been working with the Virtual Communications Museum in Europe, created jointly by the Museum für Kommunikation in Frankfurt, Germany and the Museum of the Fundaçao Portuguesa das Comunicaçoes (Portugal). This is a space where one can make virtual trips through the history of European telecommunications from the last two centuries.
