Taverna ducale, Medieval civil building museum in Popoli, Italy.

The external facade of Taverna Ducale features squared limestone blocks, multiple mullioned windows, and a pointed Gothic portal with heraldic coats of arms.

Duke Giovanni Cantelmo constructed Taverna Ducale between 1333 and 1337 as a center for collecting tithes and managing the local transhumance economy.

The museum exhibits Roman artifacts including limestone statues, a first-century altar, and sixteenth-century religious bas-reliefs that reflect regional artistic traditions.

Located in Via Giuseppe Garibaldi 13, Popoli, the museum offers free admission and displays archaeological findings from surrounding excavation sites.

The building transformed from a medieval tax collection center into an overnight lodge for travelers before becoming a museum of regional artifacts.
