What you can expect

  • We will unveil hidden symbols, mysterious epitaphs and forgotten stories: details that escape a hasty glance, but that reveal a world rich in meaning and poetry. An itinerary in the heart of the Monumental Cemetery of Staglieno, among the masterpieces of 19th-century funerary art.

    Amid statues that seem to breathe and stones that hold memories, we will explore an era in which marble conveyed the identity, values and concerns of a society undergoing profound transformation.

    A journey between life and death, where every tomb becomes a narrative and every sculpture a soul carved in silence. An intense experience that is sure to move you and make you think.
