Giornate FAI di Primavera
Saturday, March 21 and Sunday, March 22, 2026
The
FAI (Fondo per l'Ambiente Italiano) is a sort of National Trust of Italy, a private foundation allowing old mansions and buildings of historical importance - whose maintenance the owners can no longer afford - to be still open to the public.
.:. Every year since 1993, as a promotion for their activity, the FAI organizes the "Giornate FAI di Primavera" or FAI Spring Days, open door weekends throughout Italy. Hundreds of fascinating places otherwise closed to the public, or usually difficult to enter, can be exceptionally accessed.
.:. In Milan you can visit this year, among other places, the Milanese headquarters of the national broadcasting company
RAI at Corso Sempione, the
Libeskind Tower, headquarters of PricewaterhouseCoopers in the
CityLife district, the
Race Course in the San Siro district, and the
Dolce & Gabbana interior design seat, close to Corso Buenos Aires. Entrance to some of the buildings is restricted to FAI members, but you can get your membership at the moment.
.:. The selected places are not only located in Milan, obviously: they are 780, scattered in some 400 towns. The
dedicated web pages are in Italian only.
