I'm sending this to www-vrml too, because this is such a common problem.

>announcing a vrml-model of some interest (at least touristic):

By my esading of the standard, this isn't a quite a VRML file. It has a
common problem, which is that it has multiple top-level nodes:

#VRML V1.0 ascii
DEF Title Info {
string "SARITEL - Castello Normanno-Svevo, Bari"
}
DEF SceneInfo Info {
string "
Castello Normanno-Svevo - Bari
..."
}
...

So this file is a single Info node named 'Title'. If you wrap the whole
thing in a Separator{ }, it'll be what you intended. Of course, this
needs to be done for all your .wrl files so they'll work as you intended.

The relevant part of the VRML standard (in the General Syntax section)
is:

"After the required header, a VRML file contains exactly one VRML node.
That node may of course be a group node, containing any number of other
nodes."
