Women will have free entry to Italy’s state museums and archaeological sites on Sunday 8 March as part of an initiative by the culture ministry to mark International Women’s Day.<\/p>\n
In addition to offering free entry, Italy’s museums will host a series of special events throughout the day dedicated to women, listed on the culture ministry website.<\/p>\n
Among the landmark cultural venues free for women in Italy on 8 March are the Colosseum, the\u00a0Herculaneum archaeological park, Palazzo Barberini in Rome and the Uffizi Galleries in Florence.<\/p>\n
In addition to free museum openings, numerous initiatives have been organised “to raise awareness and reflect on the cultural importance of the day”, according to the culture ministry.<\/p>\n
The free entry for women in Italy’s museums on 8 March was preceded by the free\u00a0opening to all visitors of Italy’s state museums and archaeological sites, on Sunday 1 March.<\/p>\n
International Women’s Day is celebrated around the world on 8 March, serving as a focal point in the women’s rights movement, bringing attention to issues such as gender equality, reproductive rights, and violence and abuse against women.<\/p>\n
