Each experience fosters curiosity, observational skills, collaboration and critical thinking.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">They are designed as shared experiences: participation in discovery through group activities, guided and facilitated by teachers and accompanying adults, while encouraging moments of creativity and peer-to-peer exchange\u2014supporting learning, stimulating curiosity and building a participatory museum experience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>The four pathways:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>The Chapel Code<\/strong><br \/>\nAn exploratory activity in the Palatine Chapel of Saint Anne, among putti, symbols, fantastical creatures and hidden details. Through an engaging treasure hunt, students uncover the meaning of the decorations and interpret the chapel as a great narrative carved into space.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>The Mystery of the Relic<\/strong><br \/>\nA pathway dedicated to the Sacred Art section, featuring reliquaries, silverwork, ex voto offerings and objects of popular devotion. Pupils investigate the forms, materials and meanings of sacred objects, gaining insight into the deep connection between the community of Castelbuono and Saint Anne.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Contemporary Art Detectives<\/strong><br \/>\nAn interactive experience among the works in the museum\u2019s contemporary collection. Participants observe, interpret and discuss artworks like true art detectives, learning that contemporary art does not demand immediate answers, but invites questions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Design the City: Castelbuono 2050<\/strong><br \/>\nA workshop focused on the relationship between the museum, the local area and the future. Starting from the collections and exhibition spaces, students are invited to imagine the Castelbuono of tomorrow, developing ideas for public spaces, the environment and community life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Useful information<\/strong><br \/>\nTarget groups: primary and lower secondary schools<br \/>\nDuration: flexible, depending on class needs<br \/>\nFormat: interactive visit, workshop, educational game, group activity<br \/>\nAccessibility: adaptable and inclusive pathways, with the possibility of multisensory experiences<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><strong>Download the pathways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><a href=\"https:\/\/museocivicocastelbuono.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Percorsi_Museo_Civico_Creativo_EN-1.pdf\">Civic Museum Creative Pathways<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/museocivicocastelbuono.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Percorsi_Museo_Civico_Istituzionale_EN.pdf\">Civic Museum Institutional Pathways<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Civic Museum of Castelbuono offers a programme of educational pathways for primary and lower secondary schools, designed to bring children and young people closer to the historical, artistic and cultural heritage of the area through engaging, inclusive and participatory experiences tailored specifically for school classes and groups of young visitors.
