Unveiling the Past. The Archaeology of the University of Milan Meets the City, a lecture series organised by the University of Milan in collaboration with the Comune di Milano, offers an account—through sixteen events held between March and May, and again between September and November—of field research and laboratory analyses, inviting the city of Milan to engage in dialogue with cultures of the past, both near and distant.

The series is made possible through the collaboration of the Comune di Milano, Fondazione Luigi Rovati, Fondazione Arnaldo Pomodoro, FAI – Fondo Ambiente Italiano and the Diocesi di Milano, which have made available some of their cultural spaces to host the events.

Refurbishment of the exhibition spaces

From May 6 to 10, due to the partial reinstallation of the Art Museum’s exhibition spaces, a special rate applies, with reduced admission at €12 for all visitors.
