MUSLI offers two distinct but complementary visitor itineraries, dedicated respectively to the history of schooling and children's books. The School Museum is a fascinating journey into school life between the 19th and 20th centuries.
Through classrooms reconstructed with period materials, games, books and original teaching tools, visitors become “pupils of the past” and take part in an immersive and interactive experience.
The Pop-App Museum, on the other hand, invites visitors to discover the surprising world of animated books: extraordinary volumes capable of astonishing with their movement and three-dimensional effects, true precursors of contemporary digital applications.
Thanks to the Pop-App International Centre on Interactive Books, the museum makes the valuable collection of the Tancredi di Barolo Foundation accessible to the public and researchers, with over a thousand Italian and foreign examples from the 16th to the 20th century: a long history that continues to dialogue with the present. Multimedia stations allow visitors to enjoy a sensory experience combining paper and digital technology, interacting with three-dimensional books and setting tables and mechanisms in motion.
During opening hours, without the need to book, you can visit the Pop-App Museum individually and, exclusively on Saturdays and Sundays at 3.30 p.m., 4.30 p.m. and 5.30 p.m., take part in guided tours of the School Museum.
For individual visitors: the School Museum only allows entry via guided tours on scheduled opening days, departing at 3.30pm, 4.30pm and 5.30pm. The tour is included in the admission ticket and no booking is required.
For groups of at least 10 participants, it is possible to book a guided tour at a cost of €3 for Italian or €5 for foreign languages (in addition to the reduced admission ticket price).
