The Sanfilippo Place de la Musique in Barrington Hills, IL is renowned worldwide for its extensive collection of beautifully restored antique music machines, phonographs, arcade and gambling machines, chandeliers, art glass, and the world's largest restored theatre pipe organ. The collection also features the most spectacular European salon carousel in existence, street and tower clocks, steam engines, and other functional mechanical antiques, all displayed within a breathtaking French Second Empire setting.
The primary mission of the Sanfilippo Foundation, which oversees the Place de la Musique, is to preserve and share the experience of these marvelous inventions of the Western World. With the largest collection of restored automatic musical instruments in the world, including music boxes, phonographs, coin-operated pianos, and dance organs, the foundation aims to promote the appreciation of these historical treasures while supporting charities that serve children, families, health and human services, and arts and culture.
