I brought her several times and once she has attended "The night at the Museum" (it was Halloween and she was 8) , sleeping in and playing all around its rooms and labs. I love their modern approach in bringing children closer to scientific culture. My daugther is now attending Chemistry at the Milan University. I'm sure they had a role in that. :) Here you can meet the fossil of "Ciro" (Scipionyx samniticus), the first Italian dinosaur and unique in the world fossilized with internal organs.

If you know Italian language you can attend courses about several topics: earth sciences and paleontology (PALEOLAB) and life sciences and meteorology (BIOLAB).

Gli Eroici Furori art gallery was established in 2008, in the Liberty district of Porta Venezia, Milan dedicated to contemporary artists. The name of the gallery was inspired by the figure of Giordano Bruno: "Furore Amoroso" (Amorous Fury) is the motor the "burning fire" which enables the experience of Truth, the Flame that ignites the ability to create, to live and to look at life in new ways.
