About this tour

The tour consists of visiting the most representative floors of the Dantean levels while telling its history and revealing the meaning of all its symbols related to the Divine Comedy and Freemasonry.

The tour is done both by elevator and by climbing several floors by stairs.

A visit to a 1920s office allows you to experience the era in which the Barolo Palace was built.

The tour continues with the ascent of the tower, climbing floors via stairs. The stairs are narrow, one-way, and as you approach the dome they become even narrower and have no handrails, but are supported by walls on both sides.

The tour ends upon reaching the viewpoints of the Mirador and the Lighthouse; it is worth the effort and has its reward, Buenos Aires is offered as a 360° postcard from 100 meters high.
