Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Altino

The National Archaeological Museum of Altino displays over 40,000 artifacts across three floors in a 1,800 square meter exhibition space.

The museum opened its doors on May 29, 1960, with two initial rooms dedicated to exhibition space and archaeological storage.

The collection includes prehistoric objects, Iron Age materials, and Roman artifacts that document the evolution of civilization in the Venetian territory.

Located near Venice, the museum features an observation tower offering views of the surrounding countryside and the Venetian lagoon.

The adjacent archaeological site contains the remains of an ancient port-gate and the Domus of the Panther with its decorative mosaic.
