CRT - Eco-museum of Roman Coast

Museum

👍👍 Very interesting, curated with passion. Photographs, films, books, objects, documents contribute to understanding the territory of Ostia, which is not just the beach of Rome. The reconstruction of the geological evolution of this territory is interesting and then the history of the reclamation is ve...

Museo del Teatro Argentina

Museum

👍👍 An experience to repeat together with my boys from 3F, a magical place that contains three hundred years of history and art. Among the many finds of the ancient structure and decoration of the Theater I was also able to admire five original studies and the definitive cartoon for the curtain, depicti...

Museo Storico della Liberazione

Museum

👍👍 A very great and exciting museum that, in my opinion, only suffers from the lack of financial resources available. This chapter of Italian (but also German & Austrian) history is well presented in the museum and the employee/police officer (?) we spoke to on site was well informed and extremely cour...

Museo Ninfeo (Horti Lamiani)

Archaeological museum

👍👍 I was at a working table at the Enpam headquarters hosted in the room next to the Ninfeo museum in the basement of the building. The entrance to the building is already beautiful, with a waterfall worthy of the best luxury hotels, a spiral staircase leading to the basement which makes the experienc...

Enrico Fermi Center for Study and Research

Research institute

👍👍 A very beautiful museum in the historic structure of Via Panisperna where Fermi and his group carried out the experiments that later earned the great Italian physicist the Nobel Prize. The exhibition on Fermi, on his scientific activity and more generally on nuclear physics is truly beautiful and sp...

Museo "Aristaios" (ex collezione Sinopoli)

Museum

👍👍 Let's clarify. The Peduncolo room that hosts it is adjacent to the museum of the villa but they are two separate exhibitions managed by two separate bodies (a Capitoline superintendence and a state superintendence). It was born from the purchase of 160 pieces from the private collection of maestro S...

Acquedotti romani

Fondazione Museo della Shoah

Museum

👍👍 Exhibition opened on January 28th dedicated to the concentration camps. An exhibition full of photos and testimonies of the deportation of especially Italian Jews to concentration camps. A leap into pure horror in one of the saddest and most aberrant pages in history. You leave there with a sense of...

GiocArtèLAB

Children's camp

👍👍 Vorrei evidenziare a Bulla Felix che probabilmente si è confuso scrivendo questa recensione inappropriata in quanto: 1) Giocartelab non è responsabile del Parco 2) Giocartelab non si occupa del Ristoro Ma Giocartelab si occupa di far scoprire ai bambini il parco con attività ludico ricreative educat...

👍👍 Open only on the second Saturday of each month on two shifts (booking required), it represents a moment of contact with the life of a man who profoundly influenced twentieth-century thought.
