ACCESSIBILITY
Accessibility for disabled persons with reduced mobility
Disabled persons using wheelchairs or with reduced mobility have access to the entire nave of the Sansevero Chapel and the sacristy. We regret that the presence of a narrow 19th-century spiral staircase prevents disabled access to the underground chamber housing the Anatomical Machines.
Accessibility for the visually impaired
DescriVedendo Sansevero offers an inclusive visit tailored to the specific needs of the visually impaired, making the museum’s historical-artistic heritage accessible through suitable means of hospitality.
The service is always available, and a certified text is included as a special twenty-five-minute tour loaded onto the museum’s audio guide, which illustrates the works and magnificence of the Baroque Chapel, thus allowing visually impaired people to enjoy the wonders of the monumental complex independently.
Audio guides for the special tour are available free of charge to anyone with a demonstrable visual impairment.
Duration of the visit: 25 minutes
