Bologna Bookshop is a network of museum bookshops that brings together some of the city’s key cultural venues into a single itinerary waiting to be explored.
More than just retail spaces, they are open and welcoming places where you can find carefully selected books and items inspired by the local area; they also serve as widespread information points: here you can plan and book the main services offered by the city’s rich cultural and tourist offering, including museums, events, itineraries and tours.
A new way to engage with the museums and the city, even beyond a visit.
