Museo archeologico nazionale
Museo archeologico nazionale, Archaeological museum in Fratta Polesine, Italy
The Museo archeologico nazionale is an archaeological museum located in Fratta Polesine, housed in a wing of the historic Villa Badoer and displaying artifacts from Bronze Age settlements. The collection spans two floors and contains pottery, tools, ornaments, and other objects from ancient communities that flourished along the Po River.
The museum focuses on Bronze Age discoveries between the 12th and 10th centuries BCE, with major finds from the ancient settlement of Frattesina. This period marks an important trading hub that connected distant regions using the Po River as a vital route.
The collection displays everyday objects like pottery, tools, and ornaments that reveal how ancient communities in the Po valley worked, traded, and organized themselves. These artifacts offer direct insights into the daily routines and skills of people who lived thousands of years ago.
The museum is located within a quiet area and allows visitors to walk through a historic villa, creating a pleasant experience. It is recommended to allow enough time to explore both floors thoroughly and enjoy the setting at a leisurely pace.
The museum houses the Tesoretto collection, featuring ivory combs, glass beads, and amber ornaments that point to far-reaching trade contacts. These rare items reveal that ancient inhabitants had access to materials from distant lands and engaged in extensive exchange networks.
