The Sala del Simonino, until now known as Cappella del Simonino, located inside Palazzo Bortolazzi Larcher Fogazzaro, in Via del Simonino, in the historic centre of Trento, was donated to FAI by Marina Larcher Fogazzaro in 2018, to be restored and enhanced.
After the first restoration works, first on the façade of the Palace, thus discovering the fifteenth-century windows and restoring colour and legibility to the figures and inscriptions painted in the eighteenth century, the Foundation rearranged the interior space to create an unprecedented and original cultural enhancement project, which consists of a "sound story" dedicated to the story of little Simone from Trento. The audience, sitting on wooden benches like those of a choir, will listen in wireless headphones, designed to offer high quality audio, a narrative of about 20 minutes, informative, educational, but also of great suggestion and with a particular immersive effect, conceived and curated by FAI, entrusted to the voice of the actress Daria Deflorian from Trentino and produced by Chora Media.
