Established in 1869 by Canon Gabriele Iannelli, the museum survived significant damage during World War II bombings in 1943 and reopened to the public in 1956.

The collection includes 160 Mater Matuta statues, ancient Roman sculptures, and artifacts representing 3,000 years of regional civilization from Oscans to Spanish rule.

Located at Via Roma 68, the museum maintains regular hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 to 17:30, and Wednesdays and Fridays from 9:00 to 13:30.
