Il Palazzo Mediceo di Ottaviano: memory is an editing station

  • Giovanni Ambrosio

The historic Palazzo Mediceo di Ottaviano stands as a monument to the rich cultural heritage of Campania. Nestled between the awe-inspiring Mount Vesuvius and the bustling streets of modern day Ottaviano, this magnificent palace contains over a thousand years of hidden history within its walls. The desired monument, built upon the idea that memory is not a given data but a critic point of view on history and a collective process, is an information trail, a museum installation and a permanent exhibition designed to offer to all inhabitants, for the first time in forty years, a pragmatic tool to get informations on an important piece of public heritage.
