<description>&lt;p&gt;A visitor walks into a 13th century Italian castle and UNESCO Heritage site. The walls are bare. They poke around for a few seconds then walk out.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That was then.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, with a new mixed reality experience developed by Hevolus, Infratel, and Microsoft, Castel del Monte has become a HoloMuseum. Visitors can engage with various augmented reality experiences to add layers of information and detail about the castle.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Antonio Squeo, Chief Information of Hevolus, shares the details of this experience and the role that the 'phygital' museum will play in the future of cultural experiences.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Plus, commentary by Microsoft's Catherine Devine.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
