FREE MUSEUMS IN MILAN: THE MUSEUMS TO VISIT FOR FREE ALL YEAR ROUND
Free museums in Rome. Visiting museums is good, but sometimes the ticket price can be too high, especially for those who want to enjoy this moment with their family.
My search for free museums starts from Milan, where there are several museums to visit, which sometimes you can visit for free, if you pay attention to opening times and days.

The Vatican Museums
It’s unbelievable, isn’t it? Free admission to the Vatican Museums on the last Sunday of each month from 9 a.m. to 12.30 a.m. You need to be very patient, because, obviously, the museums will be very crowded, but they are really worth visiting.
Thanks to the initiative #domenicaalmuseo also in Rome several museums are admission-free on the first Sunday of each month.
