Milan Archaeological Museum
The Archaeological Museum of Milan is located in the former San Maurizio convent and features archaeological finds from different periods.
The area in which the Archaeological Museum of Milan is located was formerly occupied by a 1st-century residential building, the Roman circus and part of the city wall.
Exhibitions
The collections are grouped together based on where they were found. The first part of the museum is dedicated to ancient Milan (Mediolanum). After walking past the cloister where visitors can observe the remains of the wall and a tower built during the third century, you will come across Roman, Greek and Etruscan findings.
The museum’s prehistoric and Egyptian collections are located in the Castello Sforzesco.
One of many
For us, the highlight of the Archaeological Museum of Milan is its privileged location. Visitors will be able to see the remains of the Roman city wall, which are quite impressive. Apart from this, we would recommend this museum to those particularly interested in archaeology.
