The Bourbon Palace of Carditello will be a museum


After decades of neglect, the Reggia di Carditello has become a symbol of rebirth. It will be a museum. This was announced by the director of the Carditello Royal Site Foundation Giuseppe Russo.

The Bourbon Palace of Carditello, located in San Tammaro in Caserta, Italy, will be a museum. This was announced in an interview with Ansa by Giuseppe Russo, director general of the Royal Site of Carditello Foundation since last June 15. Afterdecades of neglect, the Royal Palace is ready to take back its museum and cultural function in an area notorious in the past for environmental degradation, making it a symbol of rebirth. The public will finally be able to access all the building’s spaces. Since January 2014, the Reggia has become the heritage of the Italians.

Director Russo presented the new development model for the Royal Site of Carditello to the news agency.

“Compared to the past, there will be discontinuity, in the sense that the Reggia, with the delivery in the coming months of the restored spaces, especially of the royal palace, will become a truly usable cultural asset, with level services for reception and fruition, with information and refreshment points and everything that already exists in other museums,” he explained. "With more museum space we will also be able to move forward with the application process for Carditello’s assets scattered in other museums. These are six hundred historical assets, including paintings, furniture and tapestries."

More space and services will also require a reorganization of the staff, with more employees, and better logistics around the Royal Site. “Within a couple of months we will present the new staff plan to the BoD with new figures such as maintenance workers, administrative staff, receptionists, and we hope for an increase in direct disbursements from the Ministry of Culture and the Campania Region,” the director added. The Bourbon Palace is a reference point for the entire territory with the CarditelloFestival-a great achievement in terms of enhancement, reputation and visibility thanks to the support of the Campania Region and Scabec.
