If you’re traveling between Rome and Orvieto, I suggest you make a stop at Alviano and it’s sweet little castle. The guided tour, included in the entrance price is interesting and insightful into the local history and culture. Exit Attigliano off the A1 highway and drive up the hill.

Reviewed By Alastair796 - Stockport, United Kingdom
This museum has many Roman artefacts and a lot of stone retrieved from the Roman town that became modern Amelia but the principal exhibit is a life size bronze statue of Germanicus. This lay buried (and therefore squashed) until 1963 but sufficiently intact to allow reconstrucion of virtually the whole thing. Those pieces that won't fit are displayed separately. How it has escaped being hauled off to at least a provinvial if not national museum seems incredible - it really has to be seen to be believed. A short film (available in English) explains the full history, both of the man and the statue. We were in the museum for well over an hour and saw no other visitors - early September so outside school holidays but this does deserve to be better known.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 31 reviews
Nel Pleistocene, circa 265.000 anni fa, proprio dove sorge l’abitato di San Venanzo, si aprirono tre piccoli crateri vulcanici che produssero alcune delle rocce e dei minerali più rari al mondo. Alle due colate laviche è stato dato il nome di “Venanzite”, una roccia studiata dalla fine del 1800 per la sua insolita origine e composizione, che ha reso il paese di San Venanzio famoso in tutto il mondo, anche al di fuori degli ambienti specialistici. Il Museo Vulcanologico, situato nel centro storico del paese, è nato per illustrare in modo divulgativo, l’origine dell’area vulcanica di San Venanzoo e per metterla in relazione con la dinamica terrestre. All’interno, attraverso percorsi tematici connessi ad allestimenti interattivi e interessanti collezioni di rocce minerali, i visitatori saranno introdotti nell’affascinante mondo dei vulcani e della geologia in generale. Il museo propone programmi didattici per le scuole di ogni ordine e grado…
