Pietrarsa — Napoli e Portici

Metropolitan City of Napoli · Campania · Italy

Admission and costs
The markets require the event ticket for your chosen date, available through the event ticket office. Do not automatically apply the museum’s ordinary admission price to the Christmas event; refreshments, shopping and parking remain separate expenses.
Getting there
Take a metropolitan or regional train on the Naples–Salerno line to Pietrarsa–San Giorgio a Cremano, which directly serves the complex for the final walk. Drivers can use Pietrarsa Parking, the private guarded car park identified by Fondazione FS on Via Pietrarsa near the museum entrance.
Time to allow
Allow around 4 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
Spend more time with locomotives and carriages in Pietrarsa’s nineteenth-century pavilions, reducing terrace and stall stops. Moving between the pavilions and market areas can involve outdoor sections; this is not an entirely indoor itinerary.
Where to park
Pietrarsa Parking is a privately operated attended car park on Via Pietrarsa, close to the museum entrance.
Route and accessibility
To arrange entry through the vehicle gate with a level crossing, call +39 081 472003 and select option 1 or 2.
