What to do and see in Spoleto, Umbria: The Best Museums

December 24, 2021 Karren Gelb

A wonderful mix of remnants from its Roman and medieval pasts, Spoleto’s history actually goes back further to Bronze Age Umbria. Today, it’s best known for its annual summer Festival dei Due Mondi (Festival of Two Worlds or Spoleto Festival), honoring music, opera, theater and dance. Among the city’s many excellent historic sights are its first-century Roman amphitheatre, the 12th-century Duomo, 13th-century Ponte delle Torri aqueduct and the 14th-century hilltop fortress, Rocca Albornoziana.

Museo Archeologico Nazionale

Reviewed By Borzov - Rijeka, Croatia

Spoleto is a very old settlement which is well-illustrated with a visit to the museum located in the former monastery of Saint Agatha in the center of the city. In this nicely organized and explained collection there are many artefacts, tools and objects from the pre-Roman and Roman times, presented on the three floors of the museum. For me, it was a very interesting and informative visit that included the well-preserved Roman theater next to the museum.
