Visit Museums For Free

We have already talked about the VIP museum subscription that allows you to visit museums, royal residences, villas, gardens, towers and the permanent collections for free 365 days a year.

Nonetheless, if you prefer there are also other ways to sneak into certain museums a couple times a month without charge—don’t worry, you won’t get in trouble!

Some exhibitions are always free, whereas other museums (not all) are free on the first Sunday of the month and others are free every first and third Tuesday of the month.

We’ll make it easy and break it down for you!
