THE VENUE

It is now a cultural venue particularly important for exhibitions, events and the Museo Omero, a unique tactile museum.

WHERE TO SLEEP
A few large hotels are available next to the venue, and many more small accommodations are available in the city center.
Beware: the city is quite hilly, to avoid steep hills you can find a place on the sea coast or around Corso Mazzini, Corso Stamira, Corso Garibaldi.
Attention: “Galleria S. Martino” is a shortcut tunnel from Mole to the city center but is NOT suggested on foot due to pollution! You should take Via XXIX Settembre instead. Usually Google Maps is smart enough to suggest you the second way.
