Museo Leone, History and art museum in Vercelli, Italy.

The Museo Leone occupies two historical buildings, the 16th-century Casa Alciati and the Baroque Palazzo Langosco, connected by a passage built in 1939.

The museum opened in 1910 to display the extensive collection of notary Camillo Leone, who gathered historical artifacts throughout his life until his death in 1907.

The exhibition halls present archaeological findings from ancient Vercelli, medieval mosaics from Santa Maria Maggiore church, and decorative arts including Limoges enamels.

Visitors can explore the museum from Tuesday to Friday between 15:00 and 17:30, and on weekends from 10:00 to 12:30 and 15:00 to 18:00.

The museum displays a rare bilingual stone inscription containing eight lines in Latin and four lines in ancient Gallic text.
