Truly fascinating and especially educating if you have kids. A must stop very close to the opera. All sections were truly interesting with that of anthropology a bit more. Ticket price 5€, worths every cent. Don't miss it.

3 stars

It's is a small museum but has its own charm. You will find a bit of everything there as probably you would expect from a university museum. Expositions cover anatomy, medicine, zoology, botanic, war, history and more. All of this plus a nice old library makes Poggi an interesting place to visit.

5 stars

Make sure to come here with comfy shoes and a full stomach because, as usual, while the museums seems quite small, Italian baroque decoration never disappoints. There are things everywhere. Yes, there are collections but the building in itself is good enough to careful watch frescos and delicate architecture. This is my first time, but clearly I have to return because I'm sure I'll discover something new every time.
