Event

Open House is the largest event in the world dedicated to the promotion of architecture. Born in 1992 in London, today it is present annually in 45 cities around the world. Since 2012, with Open House Roma, hundreds of places, remarkable for their architectural and artistic peculiarities, are open to the public, every year free of charge, with guided tours, for a weekend. Knowledge, participation, cultural transversality are the key concepts on which this great project that animates the entire city is built year after year. Open House Roma is organised and produced by Open City Roma, a non-profit association that promotes, through its many activities, the convergence of interests of the entire community towards a more sustainable and culturally aware city.
