Over ten thousand visitors to the Royal Palace of Caserta on the occasion of free entry for the Liberation Day. The Vanvitelli site confirms itself as one of the most popular among national museums. There were 12,286 visitors today, which places the palace in fourth place behind the Colosseum, Pompeii and the Pantheon.
“Free entry into state museums, archaeological parks and places of culture, again this year, on three highly symbolic dates for our history such as 25 April, 2 June and 4 November, is not a formal choice but substantial because it intends to link our cultural heritage to important days for the nation. Today we celebrate Liberation Day from Nazi-Fascism. On the occasion of these three anniversaries, I strongly wanted the free opening of our museum sites so that visitors could enjoy our artistic beauties and also making culture the protagonist of such significant anniversaries. It wasn’t like this before,” said Culture Minister Gennaro Sangiuliano.
