Rocca Di Narni, Street art museum in fortress, Narni, Italy
Rocca di Narni is a medieval fortress that now functions as an art museum displaying contemporary urban works. The space combines original architecture with multiple exhibition areas, viewing towers, and sculpture gardens.
The fortress was built in the 14th century as a defensive structure and dominated the city of Narni for centuries. It was reopened in 2023 as Italy's first dedicated museum for urban art forms.
The collection brings together contemporary urban art by internationally known artists within ancient stone walls. Visitors experience the contrast between modern creative expression and medieval architecture as they move through the galleries.
Wear comfortable walking shoes as the grounds are uneven with stairs leading to towers. Morning or late afternoon visits tend to be less crowded and offer better lighting for viewing the artworks.
The museum houses a significant collection of works by a world-famous British street artist, including one of his most iconic pieces. This artwork was specifically positioned in the exhibition spaces within this historic location.
