Vulci, History museum in Montalto di Castro, Italy.

The museum occupies the medieval Castello dell'Abbadia within the Vulci Archaeological Park, featuring extensive collections of Etruscan and Roman artifacts across multiple floors.

The castle, built by Cistercian monks in the 12th century, transformed from a religious sanctuary into a strategic fortress before becoming the National Museum of Vulci in 1975.

The museum exhibits include the François Tomb findings, Greek vases by the Painter of Micali, and numerous bucchero Etruscan artifacts that represent local craftsmanship.

The museum maintains regular opening hours from morning until evening, with an admission fee of 2 euros for adults and free entry on the first Sunday of each month.

The museum collection spans from the Bronze Age through early Iron Age, displaying architectural elements from the necropolis in the castle's outer courtyard.
