Sforza Castle's Hidden Tunnels Unveiled: Digital Twin to Transform Visitor Experience
A groundbreaking discovery and innovative project are set to transform the visitor experience at Milan's Sforza Castle. Experts have confirmed the existence of a long-rumored tunnel network, first hinted at in Leonardo da Vinci's drawings, and plan to create a digital twin for museum-goers to explore.
The castle complex, housing three museums, is now known to hide an intricate system of tunnels beneath its surface. Led by Italian archaeologist Sergio Alzetta, a research team used ground-penetrating radar and laser scanning to uncover multiple tunnel sections, including those famously depicted in a da Vinci drawing.
The tunnels, likely used for military operations, may have also connected the castle to a nearby church. Experts aim to bring this hidden history to life through a digital model of the castle. Augmented reality could enhance virtual paths, inviting visitors to explore the underground environments and inaccessible historical places.
The discovery of the Sforza Castle's tunnel network, confirmed through advanced scanning techniques, opens up new avenues for exploration and understanding of the castle's past. The planned digital twin promises an immersive experience for visitors, allowing them to delve into the castle's history like never before.
