About
The puppet museum born in 2006 in via della Giudecca, a few steps from the puppet theater, enriches the city's cultural offer and invites the visitor to get to know one of the many cultural aspects that the island of Ortigia offers. Inserted in a prestigious context such as the Midiri-Cardona palace, it traces through the exhibition of puppets, puppets, props and scenographic material, the story of papier-mâché and wood of the Vaccaro brothers, famous Syracusan puppeteers. Furthermore, from this year, younger guests will find a space dedicated to them inside the museum where they can discover their skills as puppeteers or puppeteers!
