Meget flot sted, gode detaljer på bygningen, og nyt og gammelt smukt forbundet. Vi så kun Michelangelo udstillingen i dag.

Che dire… Una scoperta! Un museo davvero grande e ben distribuito. Molto sorpresa dalla loro collezione, alcuni pezzi mi hanno davvero sbalordita. I miei complimenti perché era tutto ben organizzato e nonostante ci fosse un alto flusso di visitatori, non ci siamo mai ritrovati ammassati nelle sale. Museo che vale la pena visitare!
