A number of free tickets are available at the Info Point on a first 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).
