Discovering the Secrets of Conservation in Trento

On September 26, 2026, as part of the European Heritage Days, the Diocesan Museum of Trento invites the public to explore the delicate world of art preservation. This event offers a unique chance to understand how time and environmental factors impact the artistic treasures that define our cultural identity.

The morning begins with the guided tour “The Invisible Enemies of Art,” led by restorer Elisa Turani. This analytical journey will reveal the various forms of degradation, from the effects of humidity on wooden structures to the fragility of paint layers, highlighting the essential role of conservation in safeguarding our history.

In the afternoon, the focus shifts to families with “Detective in the Museum: Hunting for Hidden Dangers.” This activity is designed for children aged 6 to 11. Equipped with magnifying glasses and UV flashlights, young participants will explore the museum galleries to identify signs of decay, learning about the intricacies of restoration through hands-on experience. It is a thoughtful educational approach that fosters a deep appreciation for heritage in the next generation.
