Abstract


This text deals with the issues related to the fruition of illusory spaces and to the dissemination of cultural heritage through the illustration of an experience conducted by professors of DICATeA of the University of Parma in the context of an exhibition dedicated to Maria Luigia of Hapsburg. In this context, a digital model of the former church of St. Ludovico in its original configuration was created to be loaded on special visors that visitors of the exhibition can wear in order to virtually immerse themselves in a reality today largely changed. 

The goal of this work is to show how a scientific approach, resulting from a strong synergy between different disciplines, can lead to the implementation of important tools aimed at knowledge, enhancement and communication of cultural heritage.
