It is divided into 3 sections closely related to each other, because they were born together in the second half of the 18th century: Industrial Archaeology (the old Silk Factory); Historical Apartment; Royal Gardens. Finally, it is enriched by the Weaver's House, an example of a worker's house from the late 19th century.
The tour route, enriched by devices
The tour route, enriched by multimedia devices that help the understanding of the enormous work behind each silk product, is spread over two floors and winds through the nine hand looms that produce brocades, lampas, damasks and the famous “Leucian blanket”; the two huge twisting machines and the water wheel that gives them movement; and then the so-called “Bath of Maria Carolina,” a real indoor swimming pool, the work of the first court painter P. Hackert, and then the rooms painted by F.Fischetti, G.Cammarano; and finally the panoramic terraces of the Royal Gardens.
