    This is the best museum in Naples. Meeting Gaetano and visiting his impressive collection is the best way to dive into the secret history of the last 200+ years of this fascinating city. We also laughed a lot - and that’s something we will keep with us forever. Grazie di tutto Gaetano, ci vediamo alla prossima e viva Napoli!!! Worth noting, visits are booked via appointment (through the provided phone number). Enjoy!

    Exploring Dr. Bonelli’s collection was a fascinating journey into the lesser-known quotidian aspects of Naples’ history and life. The exhibits span a wide range of Neapolitan culture, from political milestones to traditional clothing and unique everyday objects. This collection captures the spirit of the city's people and their dedication to preserving their heritage. If you're interested in a guided tour, head to the reception area at Casa dello Scugnizzo. There, you can arrange to meet with the curator for a complimentary tour. Access is free.
