Where will the wide steps of this great white monument lead?
Visitors will be the protagonists of a treasure hunt conceived as an ascent of the Vittoriano: the route will be marked, from the entrance gate to the Piazzale del Bollettino, by riddles, clues and crossword puzzles to encourage the sense of spatial orientation, the spirit of observation and to make this unusual place familiar.
The statue of Victor Emmanuel II on horseback will become the visual reference point for shifting the gaze to certain architectural elements and details of the sculptural decoration that, through play, will allow learning in a nutshell about the monument's contents.
The identification of the rock of Mount Grappa will correspond to the delivery of the last tile of a mosaic that will see the children recompose the picture of the equestrian monument of Victor Emmanuel II.
Each child will then be given a drawing of just the outline of the horse and the king, which each child can enrich with details and colour in.
