For elder and younger kids ☺️

The museum is awesome. It is a great experience for the adults and for kids too. The flyover with VR is a great opportunity to see Rome as a bird see it. Thanks for Federico, my daughter (6y) really enjoyed the fly. 🥰

The DaVinci Museum was a...

The DaVinci Museum was a quick, inexpensive diversion for our first day in Rome. It's a science museum filled with examples of DaVinci's inventions (some interactive), concepts, and studies.

an exhibition with illustrations

Very small museum room. Primitively - quickly over. Nothing is original - an exhibition with illustrations

Thank you for visiting our Leonardo da Vinci museum and sharing your thoughts with us. We understand that you were disappointed to find that our museum features prototypes of Leonardo's machines rather than original pieces. We'd like to provide some context: Leonardo da Vinci's innovative designs and ideas were often ahead of his time, and unfortunately, many of his original machines were never built during his lifetime. Our museum's prototypes are carefully crafted by expert artisans based on Da Vinci's detailed drawings and notes, allowing visitors to appreciate the genius of his designs. While we can't display original pieces that don't exist, we're proud to share the legacy of Leonardo's work and inspire curiosity about science, art, and innovation. We appreciate your feedback and are sorry that our museum didn't meet your expectations. We hope you'll continue to explore and learn about Leonardo da Vinci's remarkable contributions to human knowledge and creativity.

Great for children - Boring for adults.

This Museum offers a coarse overview over the achievments and the life of Leonardo from Vinci. It is Perfect for children up to 12 years, as you can touch and try nearly anything and the easliy understandable explanations are available in several different languages. For adults it offers not too much. BTW: the german audioguide is awful. Not only is there on real accentuation - the reader stops for complex words and reads them slow and not faultfree.
