WHAT TO EXPECT/ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION

An expert guide will take you on a walk through Monclassico and Presson to explain all there is to know about the 60 artistic sundials that have been painted on the homes of these hamlets: the only place like this in all of Europe, a museum under the sky! The experience will begin with a taste of a truly curious hot beverage: have you ever tried "pom brulé"?

INTERESTING FACTS/INFO

You’ll see a rare example of a «camera obscura» meridian, also called a noon mark: There are only 6 like this in all of Italy. A unique interactive experience.
