In the evocative setting of the spaces specially created by Gio Ponti on the top floor of the Liviano building, the Museum of Archaeological Sciences and Art shares the stories of the ancient inhabitants of the Mediterranean area, from Pharaonic Egypt to Greek civilization and from Italic populations to the Romans and Padua 2000 years ago.
The museum takes visitors, not only on a fascinating journey to discover ancient cultures, but also to learn about the stories of scholars and collectors who, over several centuries, contributed to the founding and development of archaeological sciences.
