A very ambitious project developed with Google Arts &Culture, platform of the Google Cultural Institute. An immense virtual space in which to navigate stories, images, objects.
The Google platform, which includes about 2 thousand cultural institutions around the world, aims to make culture, in its many manifestations, accessible to everyone, beyond space and time.
There are four thematic paths of the Google Arts &Culture portal for Parma: Art, Music, Culture of food, Crafts.
Our city is represented by more than 17 thousand images of museums and collections, 30 places digitized and rendered in 3D with Street View with the most innovative technologies of Google.
An extraordinary opportunity for Parma and its heritage that now become a digital showcase of images and content open to the whole world

The University of Parma has welcomed with great interest and great enthusiasm the request for collaboration of Google Arts &Culture in the consideration of being the guardian of a vast, unique and precious heritage that however has not yet had the opportunity to be known by the general public. From today, millions of people around the world will be able, beyond all spatial limits, to admire treasures that are still hidden.
