The Castello di Rovereto, home of the Museo Storico Italiano della Guerra (MITAG), rents four of its spaces for meetings, seminars, ceremonies and open-air events: a conference hall for 76 people, a seminar room for 26, the Sala Campana for ceremonies and an inner courtyard for 70. The castle is a fifteenth-century Venetian fortress in Rovereto, in Trentino. Hire is open to public bodies, companies and private individuals.
Seminars and company events
The conference hall covers 120 square meters and holds 76 people: 72 seats for the audience and four armchairs at the speakers' table. It has a speakers' table with four wired microphones and one wireless microphone, a video projector, a PC with HDMI and VGA connections, a sound system and a flipchart. It is accessible to people with a physical disability, with advance notice. The hall can be booked by public bodies, companies or private citizens, and the purpose of use is agreed with the museum. Its availability depends on the museum's own program. The seminar room, called the aula didattica, takes 26 people with 26 chairs and eight tables, a PC and projector, a Bluetooth speaker, a lectern and a flipchart. It can be used during museum hours, Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 to 17:30. It has no access for people with mobility problems. A small refreshment of drinks and a cold buffet is allowed, provided by the renter. A site visit with the museum staff is required before any hire.
Weddings and receptions
The Sala Campana is offered for ceremonies and receptions, with photographs possible across the castle: the courtyard, the ramparts facing the city and the Leno stream, the towers and the climb up to the castle, with indoor spaces as a fallback in bad weather. It seats 26 on chairs, with a table, lighting and an amplification system with a Bluetooth speaker. The day and time are agreed, Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 to 17:30. Flowers and decorations are at the renter's expense and must be removed afterward. Throwing rice or confetti is not allowed, and nails, glue and tape are banned on the historic walls. The room is not accessible to people with mobility problems.
Rooms and capacities
The courtyard covers 168 square meters and takes 70 people. It can be used only when the museum is closed and does not give access to the exhibition rooms. It has no furniture, microphones or stage, so the renter sets it up, and electrical outlets at 220 V are available. In bad weather the conference hall can be used at no extra cost.
Catering
There is no kitchen service. A cold buffet can be organized in the cloister or in the adjoining room for the courtyard, and a light refreshment is allowed in the seminar room, both supplied by the renter.
Accommodation
No bedrooms are listed. Guests would stay in Rovereto.
