What to expect
You'll be guided through multiple levels of a historic palazzo that doubles as Fendi's working atelier and showroom. Expect to see craftspeople at benches stitching, cutting, and finishing pieces—the tour is designed so you observe real work, not a staged performance. The guide contextualises each room: how a particular motif echoes Roman coins, why certain techniques have remained unchanged for decades. The pace is leisurely; you're encouraged to look closely at details.
