Museo regionale della ceramica

The Museo Regionale della Ceramica presents over 3,000 ceramic artifacts spanning different periods of Sicilian craftsmanship within its exhibition halls.

Founded in 1965, the museum has transformed from a regional collection into a national heritage institution dedicated to preserving ceramic traditions.

Local artisans continue to draw inspiration from the museum's collection, maintaining Caltagirone's centuries-old tradition of pottery production.

Located at Via Giardino Pubblico Vittorio Emanuele, the museum provides wheelchair access and operates a restoration laboratory for ceramic conservation.

The museum recorded 22,986 visitors in 2018, marking its position as a central institution for ceramic studies in Sicily.
