GALLERIA INTERATTIVA “LEONARDO IN ADDA”

Vaprio d'Adda (MI)

included

Reduced

Inaugurated in 2011, the gallery invites visitors to rediscover Leonardo da Vinci's scientific and visionary gaze. Housed in the evocative basement of the Casa del Custode delle Acque - just a few steps from the home that welcomed the Maestro - the exhibition allows visitors to interact directly with his writings and experiments, celebrating the deep connection between the genius of Vinci and the river Adda.

Due visitatori ai lati di una vasca d'acqua illuminata di viola e fucsia, in una sala con volta a botte e pareti chiare.

Crossing the threshold of this space is not just a visit, but a real leap back in time. You will be guided by the voice of Leonardo da Vinci himself: an exceptional mentor who will reveal the secrets of water motion, tirelessly studied along the banks of the Adda and the Naviglio.

Here, theory becomes flesh and thought becomes experience. The tour explores the Maestro's love of landscape, light and direct observation, pillars of his scientific and artistic philosophy.

The Exhibition Route

The experience unfolds through three immersive rooms, each one dedicated to a crucial aspect of Da Vinci's legacy:

Atlantic Code Theatre Hall In an atmosphere that recreates the charm of an old printing works, among historical desks and drawers, you can browse and touch the anastatic copies of about 300 sheets of the Atlantic Codex. A rare opportunity to physically interact with the thoughts that changed history.
Treaty Hall of Moves and Waters The beating heart of the visit. A large scenographic pool reproduces live the fluid-dynamic phenomena studied by Leonardo: waves, flows and eddies intertwine in a visual spectacle of extraordinary impact, making the complexity of the liquid element tangible.
Territory Hall A tribute to the Master's stay in the Adda Valley and the pre-alpine areas. Through sketches, maps and meticulous drawings, you will discover his analytical view of the landscape, culminating in the famous and pioneering zenithal representation of the Adda river course.
