POI BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Description of the POI	Misteri are structures made in tempered iron and assembled on wooden bases on which people, mostly children, are placed to represent angels, devils, scenes from the life of saints and sacred figures of Christianity. These structures are carried on men’s shoulders during the parade that takes place on Corpus Domini’s day. While waving, the structures give the sensation that the children who interpret the sacred figures are flying over the heads of the spectators.

The "Projection Room" with 40 seats, allows you to view footage of the Processione dei Misteri, shot in various years, relating to the preparation and development of the event and capable of recreating the atmosphere that is lived in Campobasso on the day of Corpus Domini.
