There haven't reached written texts of the ancient Celts who tell us their Pantheon, their conception of the universe, its origins and its order.
The only invaluable direct source, in addition to the other indirect one (Greek and Latin authors and prectious, but late echoes in Irish and Welsh literature) is the figurative art.
The exhibition "Celts. The face of gods and the breath of cosmos" try to tell through a fascinable iconographic tunnel the elusive face of the Celtic pantheon , the cosmic symbolism and the division of time and space.
The masterpieces of Celtic art, finely engraved and decorated, will open a fascinating insight into the spiritual and cultural world of Celtic settlements in Milan and in Lombardia.
All exhibits are the result of careful work of historical and archaeological reconstruction that, starting from the studies and the analysis of the findings, comes to their faithful reproduction through techniques and materials own at that time.
There are guided tours for public and schools.
The contents of guided tours for schools will be graduated according to the age of the students and will be possible to agree, by requests of teachers, particular courses.
