Accessibility

Sovrintendenza Capitolina ai Beni Culturali aims to guarantee access to its historical and artistic heritage to the widest possible audience.
Most of the Municipality Museums are accessible to everyone.
Although the historical character of the buildings prevents, in some cases, the total removal of the architectural barriers, many museums have installed elevators, stairlifts and services suitable for visitors with impaired mobility.
Our museums offer a wide range of tools and programs specifically designed for adults and children with disabilities.

The entrance to the Museums for disabled people and one family member or other companion is free.
