Museo civico Duilio Cambellotti, Biographical museum in Piazza San Marco, Latina, Italy
The Museo civico Duilio Cambellotti is an art museum housed in a 1932 building designed by architect Oriolo Frezzotti located at Piazza San Marco. The collection includes sculptures, drawings, gouaches, woodcuts, ceramics, books, medals, posters, and documents from the modern Italian artist.
The building was completed in 1932 and initially served as barracks and a refuge during World War II. After the war, it functioned as a gymnasium until its transformation into a museum in 2005.
The collection reflects the artist's engagement with regional themes and modern techniques that shaped the city's cultural identity. Visitors can see how his work connected to the landscape and society around Latina through various media displayed throughout the rooms.
The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday with morning and afternoon sessions, giving visitors flexibility in planning their visit. Its location at Piazza San Marco makes it easy to reach on foot and offers a pleasant starting point for exploring the city.
A monumental bronze fountain called Fontana della Palude stands in the atrium showing mares drinking water. The artwork was cast in 1984 but based on a plaster original from 1912.
