Visiting the Museum means retracing the history of the hill of the cathedral and therefore of the city of Viterbo since the earliest times. In the archaeological part there are Villanovan, Etruscan, Roman and medieval finds. There is a small excavation test carried out on the occasion of the construction works of the Museum.
The Pinacoteca https://www.archeoares.it/sezione-storico-artistica/
In the art gallery it is possible to learn about the art expressed in the area starting from the 13th century with the Madonna della Carbonara. But the visit also allows you to enjoy the masterpieces of Benvenuto di Giovanni, the "Crucifixion" traditionally attributed to the great Michelangelo and the Caravaggesque Bartolomeo Cavarozzi up to the works of the protagonists of the Roman eighteenth century such as Domenico Corvi. Furthermore, the pictorial works are also present in the guided tour where it is possible to admire, among others, the masterpiece by Giovani Francesco Romanelli.
