Museo archeologico provinciale di Salerno, Archaeological museum in Salerno, Italy.

The Provincial Archaeological Museum of Salerno displays artifacts from prehistoric times through the Roman era in a former Benedictine monastery complex.

The museum, which opened in 1927, occupies a Lombard-era monastic structure with documented records dating back to 868.

The exhibition path includes prehistoric materials from the caves of Polla and Pertosa, along with objects discovered in the tombs of Sala Consilina.

The museum spans three levels, featuring an outdoor garden with Roman statues, a ground floor dedicated to prehistory, and a first floor housing later artifacts.

A bronze head of Apollo, discovered in 1930 in the Gulf of Salerno and attributed to sculptor Pasiteles, represents the collection's principal artifact.
