Museo archeologico nazionale Jatta

The National Archaeological Museum Jatta displays over 2000 archaeological objects across four exhibition rooms in a 19th-century palace.

Giovanni and Giulio Jatta assembled the archaeological collection between 1821 and 1842, which remained unchanged until its acquisition by the Italian state in 1991.

The museum houses significant Greek and local red-figure vases, including the famous Talos Crater depicting the death of the bronze giant.

The museum opens Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 13:30, Saturdays from 14:30 to 19:30, and first and third Sundays from 8:30 to 13:30.

The collection represents the only preserved 19th-century private archaeological museum in southern Italy that maintains its original museographic layout.
