National Archaeological Museum of Sannio Caudino

The National Archaeological Museum of Sannio Caudino occupies the first floor of the north wing within the medieval Montesarchio Castle, displaying regional artifacts and collections.

The museum building, originally constructed during the Lombard period as a fortress, underwent transformations from Norman times through Aragonese rule before becoming a state prison in 1830.

The collection contains decorated vases from Attic and Italiote production, dating back to the 5th-4th centuries BC, representing trade connections with Greek cities.

Visitors can explore the museum from Tuesday to Sunday between 09:00 and 19:00, with parking facilities available on the premises at Via Castello 1.

The museum features a dedicated section about Caudium, presenting grave goods from the Caudine necropolis spanning from the mid-eighth to third century BC.
