Museo tattile Anteros

About the museum

The Museo Tattile Anteros is housed in the Istituto dei Ciechi Francesco Cavazza, in via Castiglione in Bologna. It displays three-dimensional bas-relief translations of famous paintings from the Middle Ages to the modern era, with a particular focus on Renaissance painting.

The aim is to teach people with visual impairments how to use their remaining senses in an integrated way and, at the same time, to raise awareness among sighted visitors.
