Facts and practical information

Villa Bruno is a Vesuvian villa located on Via Cavalli di Bronzo in San Giorgio a Cremano. It has long been the cultural center of San Giorgio, hosting concerts, events and the Troisi Prize, dedicated to young comedians. It also houses many municipal offices and is home to various associations. Since 2002 it has also been home to the municipal library, based on a substantial donation made by Cav. Giacinto Fioretti, who also took care of its arrangement. It is therefore known as the "Palace of Vesuvian Culture."
