Gela Regional Archaeological Museum

The museum exhibits more than four thousand artifacts arranged chronologically from prehistoric times through medieval periods across two spacious floors.

The institution, established in 1955 by the Ministry of Public Works, preserves items from the ancient Greek colony of Gela founded in 689 BCE.

The collection includes Greek pottery with black and red figures, numismatic items, and artifacts from local archaeological sites such as Acropolis and Capo Soprano.

Located next to the ancient acropolis, the museum opens daily from 9:00 to 19:00, allowing visitors to explore both the exhibitions and adjacent historical sites.

The museum houses the remains of an ancient Greek merchant vessel discovered in the seabed of Gela's port, providing insights into maritime trade.
