April 25, 2026: free access to state archaeological sites and museums in Campania

Saturday, April 25, 2026, for Liberation Day, state museums and archaeological parks will offer free entry. The initiative includes several key locations across Campania, providing a chance to explore archaeological sites and historical collections at no charge.

Some of the main state sites accessible for free in the region include:

• Archaeological Museum of Stabiae
• Reggia di Quisisana
• Pompeii excavations
• Herculaneum excavations
• Royal Palace (Palazzo Reale) of Naples
• National Archaeological Museum (MANN) of Naples
• Capodimonte Museum and Royal Park

Practical tips:

• Check opening hours and any mandatory reservation requirements on the official pages of each museum or archaeological site before you go.
• Arrive early at the busiest sites (notably Pompeii and Herculaneum) to avoid queues and possible capacity limits.
• Bring identification if requested and follow conservation rules while visiting archaeological areas.

The free admission applies to state-run monuments, museums, galleries, archaeological excavations, parks and monumental gardens. For detailed information on hours and access procedures, consult the official channels of each institution.
