THE MUSEUM
The Longobard Archaeological Museum in Romans d'Isonzo: a new immersive and interactive space
The Civic Archaeological Museum of Romans d’Isonzo (CMAR) offers an innovative approach to the museum experience, combining interactive digital storytelling with displays of artefacts and archaeological discoveries from the Romans necropolis. At the centre of the exhibition, an immersive space invites visitors to engage with narratives drawn from Lombard history and the people who shaped it.

The entire exhibition sought to emphasise the narrative component accompanying the presentation of the artefacts with rich graphic supports and interactive digital applications, such as virtual reconstructions, holograms, metahumans, video projections and VR experiences.
The grave goods, displayed in more than 30 display cases, have been arranged into six sections that visitors are invited to explore through a journey that can be either chronological – from the oldest tombs to the most recent ones – or thematic, ranging from the presentation of objects belonging to warriors, or used in everyday life, such as men's and women's work tools, goldsmith's jewellery, ceramics and glassware.
EXPERIENCES
Explore the history of the Lombard people and the Romans necropolis thanks to interactive touchscreens and virtual characters.
