come, first served basis to visit the Exhibition "Kosmos - The Sailing 
Ship of Knowledge" taking place at the "Scuderie" (Stables) of the 
Miramare Castle.
/

/The exhibition is a tribute to the expedition of the frigate Novara 
completed between 1857 and 1859 and the scientific exploration season of 
the 19th century.  The aim of the expedition was to make a substantial 
contribution to the natural sciences through the collection of 
observations, measurements, data and findings for the scientific 
academies. The title of the exhibition is a tribute to Alexander von 
Humboldt and his work Kosmos. In his work, Humboldt theorized about the 
interconnectedness of all things, anticipating the modern concept of 
ecology. The main theme of the exhibition is travel understood as the 
continuous human quest to go beyond one's limits and push the boundaries 
of knowledge. The goal is the explore the unknown, pushing to the 
extremes of the globe, the depths of the sea, the immensity of the 
cosmos and the microcosm of subatomic particles./

/The exhibition is open every day from 10:00 to 18:00 until 16 June 2024 
(last entry at 17:00 hrs). /
