On Saturday, 27 September 2025, on the occasion of European Heritage Days, Palazzo Citterio will participate in the initiative with a special evening opening until 10 p.m. (last admission at 9 p.m.), offering admission at a symbolic cost of €1 starting at 6 p.m.

Reservations are required.

It will be the perfect opportunity to experience the rooms on the main floor of the palace in an evocative evening setting, admiring the masterpieces of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, in continuity with the collections of the Pinacoteca di Brera. The exhibition begins with Giuseppe Pellizza da Volpedo’s Fiumana, a turning point between two centuries of art and history.

During the evening, Citterio Garden, the bistro inside the Palazzo, will be open to make the experience even more enjoyable, offering a convivial break between art and architecture.

The European Heritage Days are promoted by the Council of Europe and the European Commission, and coordinated in Italy by the Ministry of Culture. It is the most popular cultural event in Europe, dedicated to discovering cultural heritage in its many forms.

The theme of the 2025 edition, “Architecture: the art of building”, invites us to reflect on architecture as a living testimony to the past and a tool for dialogue with the future.
