Tarquinia National Museum, Archaeological museum in Tarquinia, Italy
The National Archaeological Museum occupies the Palazzo Vitelleschi, a 15th-century palace with three floors of exhibitions displaying Etruscan artifacts.
The museum opened in 1924 after merging the Municipal Collection with private collections from local noble families, including the Bruschi-Falgari counts.
The first floor presents a chronological journey through Villanovan artifacts, Greek vases, and Etruscan items, including the Egyptian Bocchoris vase from the 7th century BC.
The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Sunday between 8:30 and 19:30, offering complete wheelchair access throughout the exhibition spaces.
The second floor contains preserved frescoes from the Monterozzi Necropolis, including the Tomb of the Triclinium with its detailed banquet scenes.
