Begin your journey into the world of butterflies with an entry ticket to The Butterfly House, where three immersive greenhouses transport you to the habitats of Africa, Asia, and the Amazon. Surrounded by exotic plants and the gentle flutter of more than 1,000 butterflies, experience the sights, sounds, and scents of these vibrant ecosystems.
Each greenhouse is carefully designed to replicate the natural environment, offering a unique opportunity to observe butterflies up close as they feed, rest, and interact with their surroundings. Continue your exploration in the exhibition ‘Butterflies. 4 lives, 1,000 stories’, where you’ll uncover the fascinating life cycle of butterflies, from egg to adult.
Marvel at the largest and most colourful specimens, and discover what butterflies eat, how long they live, and how they reproduce. The journey doesn’t stop there—step into the ‘6-legged Jewellery’ exhibition to admire jewel insects from around the globe, displayed like precious gems and revealing the artistry of nature.
Visit the MUFFFA (Museo delle Farfalle e delle Falene), Italy’s first museum dedicated entirely to butterflies and moths. See curated collections of both Italian and exotic species, with rotating exhibits that share the stories and science behind collecting and preserving these delicate creatures.
Finally, stroll through the ‘PolliNation’ garden, a living showcase of pollinator-friendly plants. Each section highlights the relationship between specific flowers and their pollinators, offering a fresh perspective on urban biodiversity and the secret language of flowers.
