It was announced this morning by Health Minister Roberto Speranza that museums in regions in the yellow zone will be able to reopen from January 16. Lombardy is among the regions currently worse off in terms of Covid-19 infection, but the final answers will come on January 15, when data from the Istituto Superiore di Sanità will be analyzed to decide which bands to put regions in starting on the 16th.
There is a real risk that Lombardy will end up in the orange or even red zone, but the Brescia Musei Foundation nevertheless resolved at its board of directors meeting the day before yesterday that, in case it is possible to reopen museums, entry to the foundation’s museums will be free for everyone until February 15. People will therefore enter without paying a ticket in the Museum of Santa Giulia, the Capitolium with the renewed display of the Winged Victory, the Tosio Martinengo Art Gallery, and the Museum of Weapons at the Castle. A symbolic gesture to reaffirm the importance of culture.
