Abstract

The application of Information & Communication Technologies (or, more specifically, Virtual Reality) to Cultural Heritage can certainly be deemed as one of the new frontiers of cultural policies. In particular, the idea of using visualisation as an interactive interface for accessing cultural database is extremely promising. Starting from this consideration, the Nuove Istituzioni Museali of Bologna City Council has conceived the ?Certosa Virtual Museum?, a project that has led to a scalable and multiplatform application.
