Museo Nazionale Etrusco "Pompeo Aria"

The Museo Nazionale Etrusco is located in Marzabotto, Italy, combining an archaeological museum with an outdoor excavation site. It displays pottery, tools, jewelry, and other objects discovered during digs at this ancient settlement.

The site preserves remains of an Etruscan city from the 6th century BC, revealing advanced urban planning and building methods. The Etruscan civilization left clear evidence of its technical and artistic capabilities at this location.

The galleries show everyday objects, religious items, and burial goods that reveal how Etruscans lived and what mattered to them. You can observe the craftsmanship in their tools and the importance they placed on rituals and family traditions.

Both the museum building and outdoor site are fully accessible for wheelchairs, allowing you to explore both areas together. It is convenient to visit both sections in one trip since the indoor galleries and archaeological grounds are well connected.

The site lets you see a complete ancient city center rather than isolated objects behind glass. This approach gives a rare sense of how an Etruscan community was actually organized and which spaces served different purposes.
