Italian museums: starting from 3 April, free access every first Sunday of the month

Following the adoption of the Decree-Law of 24 March 2022, n. 24, which sanctioned the cessation of the state of emergency for the COVID-19 epidemic, free Sundays are back in places of culture.

Starting today, Sunday April 3 e every first Sunday of the month, the state museums and archaeological parks and places of culture will guarantee free access to all visitors who will thus be able to benefit once again from a unique initiative to promote knowledge of Italy's cultural heritage.

Intesa Sanpaolo, in line with the initiative of the Ministry of Culture, allows the public to visit the permanent collections and current exhibitions at the Gallerie d'Italia offices: Milano where "From Canova to Boccioni" and the "Cantiere del '900" project are underway, dedicated to the enhancement of works from the XNUMXth and XNUMXst centuries; Naples, to visit Palazzo Zevallos Stigliano – last day waiting for the new headquarters to open on May 21st, the collection of works by the sculptor Vincenzo Gemito and the last extraordinary masterpiece by Caravaggio; and finally Vicenza, where we signal 'How we will be. The Italy that rebuilds' with a selection of photographs from the Publifoto Intesa Sanpaolo Archive, andVenice, what an enterprise!

Visits on free Sundays, like those that take place on ordinary visiting days, must also take place in full compliance with the new security measures provided for by the aforementioned Decree.

From 1 April 2022 to access monuments, museums, galleries, parks, state monumental gardens, possession of the enhanced green pass, nor the basic one, will no longer be required, while the obligation to use surgical masks will remain.

Some venues can only be visited by reservation. The Ministry of Culture recommends consulting the websites of museums and archaeological parks before planning a visit.
