The timetables of museums, monuments and places of culture in Naples for the summer 2014
In the summer, culture and art don't go on vacation, at least not in Naples! Throughout the month of August many museums, monuments and places of culture will remain open to welcome the Neapolitans themselves who will stay in the city and take the opportunity to learn more about their cultural heritage, but above all tourists visiting Naples.
Within the initiative Summer in Naples 2014, in addition to the dense program of events, concerts, shows and guided tours, the City has also distributed the summer schedules of all museums and cultural sites in the city, in order to be able to know and note them, and avoid finding closed the places you intend to visit.
