Didactics

The project is aimed at providing kindergarten and primary school students with theoretical knowledge of the historical, artistic and archaeological heritage, through laboratory activities and guided tours. The Castiglione museum system offers educational workshops related to four main historical-artistic moments: prehistoric, Etruscan, Roman and medieval civilizations. The fundamental objective of the project is to make the teaching experience as engaging and communicative as possible: to this end, the rooms and clothing related to the different historical periods will be re-proposed in the museum premises. As regards the offer aimed at second-level secondary school students, guided tours of the museum system are offered, conducted by expert staff. There are also activities of various types coordinated by qualified personnel and aimed at subjects belonging to disadvantaged categories.

The Castiglion Fiorentino museum system has a rich cultural offer which includes a visit to the evocative Cassero area, with the square and the fourteenth-century tower of the same name, the underground archaeological itinerary, the archaeological museum, the ancient collection and the art gallery. Thanks to recent interventions, the Museums of Castiglion Fiorentino offer an updated and efficient set-up, capable of allowing the user full use of the exhibited works.

The Museum System is open to the public with free admission.
