This is a magical place where creativity meets inspiration.
The word Sculptureum is a combination of “Sculpture” and “Museum”. In fact, this is what it is: an amazing collection of sculptures from all over the world, created with the purpose to enrich people and make them reflect on what makes life more interesting and enjoyable.
