Personal anecdote - I rather enjoyed reading "Name of the rose" as a kid. I don't remember how old I was at the time, maybe somewhere around 11-13. While I obviously didn't understand a lot of the details at the time, I remember vaguely feeling that there was something deeper than just a murder plot. All in all, it was a pretty good experience, and served as my gateway drug into other books by Eco.
