Traveler reviews
Kseniia Feodoridi
★★★★★a year agoA fascinating and well-curated museum with an impressive collection of artifacts from Roman, Etruscan, and early medieval periods. The glassware and ceramics displays are especially beautiful and well-preserved — a real treat for history and archaeology enthusiasts. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed, and there was no wait to enter. You can buy tickets directly at the museum, which is very convenient. It’s a peaceful and enriching place to explore at your own pace. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Milan and interested in ancient history!
Ronald Po
★★★★★a year agoThe museum is free to enter along with your Yes Milano pass (I'd recommend this) just don't schedule anything on Monday. The collection was actually immense and very informative. Kudos to the donors and staff for maintaining a good place.
