The most attractive and popular events of the DIM are the days of open doors that the museums offer for free to their visitors; as well as the celebration of the Night of Museums, an initiative of the Council of Europe, during which several museums in the country open their doors beyond their usual hours and after midnight with an extensive program of activities.
