What is Wonder and what does it mean to collect it?
Wunderkammer is an unprecedented journey in search of the “rooms of wonders”, extraordinary places scattered all over the world, where eccentric oddities of inestimable value are kept.

Extraordinary places arose all over the world, from the Renaissance, the 18th century and the age of the Enlightenment, where some collections gave birth to the contemporary concept of a museum by bringing us prestigious galleries from grandiose cities and castles.
