Best places: Art museums in Italy

👍👍 If you only have time to visit one Complesso Monumentale while in Napoli, visit this one. Amazing 14th-century frescoes that you can examine up close and currently there's a wonderful Artemisia Gentileschi temporary exhibit.

👍👍 Interessantes Museum über Mountain Fotografie, etwas unterhalb der Bergstation Kronplatz 2000. Ich empfehle das Kombiticket mit dem Messner Mountain Museum für 20€, da man hier einiges sparen kann. Das Museum an sich ist sehr interessant und interaktiv.
