Ospedale delle Bambole

Naples


Hidden in a bougainvillea-clad courtyard within the opulent Palazzo Marigliano, this family-managed doll hospital has specialised in restoring children’s toys for more than a century. Visit the Neapolitan Neverland, where miniature clothes and plastic body parts are strung up across the workshop, and observe as artisans repair their subjects to former glory.
