Traveler reviews

  • Alina G

    ★★★★★a year ago

    I was very surprised to find myself the only visitor to this wonderful museum on a Sunday afternoon. A very underrated place, although in the villa you can admire the 18th century interiors, furniture and art. I especially recommend paying attention to the porcelain collection. In a building nearby there is a carriage museum.

    A museum and exhibition that come highly recommended. The museum offers a truly compelling insight into the lifestyle of the Italian monarchy. The Banksy vs. Wahool exhibition is truly impressive. Two artists with similar ideas but different interpretations and approaches.
