PALACE OF REASON

Building entrance:

The main entrance is located on Piazza Erbe, and to reach the first floor of the building, one must ascend a large, steep, monumental staircase. The current restoration project is preparing a new entrance, equipped with an elevator, to make the building accessible to all.

Visiting route:

The large hall, the main museum space, is easily accessible thanks to its size and the absence of architectural barriers. The exhibition inside the Clock Tower, due to the only stairs (narrow and steep, but equipped with handrails), is not accessible to many visitors.

Toilets:

There are no accessible restrooms because they are located in the Palazzo del Podestà area, which is currently closed for renovations. Restrooms are occasionally made available for large-scale events. In those cases, they are accessible to everyone.

Additional services:

There are no additional services, such as aids to help blind and visually impaired people understand the area.
