This self-guided audio tour unlocks centuries of ambition, betrayal, and hidden wonders as you stroll from ancient ruins to regal theaters and hushed monasteries. Hear stories most visitors pass by without ever knowing they exist.
Who orchestrated the midnight rebellion that shook Brixia’s very foundations? What mysterious relic vanished from the Museum of Santa Giulia, leaving whispers behind? Why did a lavish opera at Teatro Grande cause a citywide scandal over one peculiar note?
Move through shadowed arches and sunlit courtyards. Follow a path where emperors feasted, monks plotted, and artists dared to change Brescia forever. Expect drama with every step and see these landmarks transformed by new light and old secrets.
