Rome Etruscan Museum of Villa Giulia

Step into Rome’s Museum of Villa Giulia, founded in 1889 as a home for archaeological discoveries. The museum’s displays include fine ceramics from different periods and places of production, with some objects described as masterpieces.

Explore materials recently returned to Italy from museums and private collectors in the United States after being stolen by tomb robbers. Other important objects were recovered through seizures ordered by the judiciary and operations conducted by Italy’s Cultural Heritage Protection Command. Panels near the entrance introduce plans for the museum’s expansion, while modern display windows look toward Villa Poniatowski and accommodate a review of recently acquired materials.

Your entrance ticket offers a chance to encounter these archaeological objects at your own pace. Visit the Museum of Villa Giulia to discover a distinctive chapter of Rome’s cultural heritage.
