Open Monuments: a festival that opens doors to history and knowledge

Every year, thanks to the efforts of thousands of volunteers, Monumenti Aperti throws open the doors of public monuments and private ones for free, including many sites normally inaccessible to the public, transforming towns and cities into veritable laboratories of shared culture.

Open Badges from the Cities of Learning platform are digital credentials that tell the story of the experience during the event in an innovative way: with this certification, not only participation is rewarded, but also the ability to build relationships, care for places, share knowledge and inspire the community, promoting culture as an engine of individual and social growth.

As has been the case continuously since 2008, the Monumenti Aperti project again this year received the Medal of Representation of the Presidency of the Italian Republic.
Monumenti Aperti 2025 is a project funded by the Ministry of Labor and Social Policy – Directorate General of the Third Sector and Corporate Social Responsibility- Notice No. 2/2023.
This year’s edition is held under the prestigious patronage of the Senate of the Republic, the Chamber of Deputies, the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Tourism and the National Association of Italian Municipalities. Especially important is also the patronage of the European Parliament, received for the fourth year.
