Prenotazione obbligatoria
Prenotazione obbligatoria means a reservation is compulsory: the museum does not admit anyone without a booked date and time, even on free days. It is the norm at the Borghese Gallery and for the Colosseum's restricted areas.
Example
The Borghese Gallery admits visitors in two-hour slots and sells no walk-up tickets when the slot is full, so the phrase is the difference between seeing Bernini and seeing the garden.
