Antiquarium of Pompei

On January 25, the Antiquarium of Pompeii opened to the public, the new museum venue dedicated to the permanent display of finds which narrate the history of Pompeii. It is an introduction to the site visit, told through the most significant artefacts of the ancient city, from the Samnite era (4th century BC) to the tragic eruption of AD 79, with particular attention paid to the city’s inseparable link with Rome.
