This archeological museum is a tour de force in antiquities from the ancient Mediterranean world. From the Etruscans to the Greeks to the Egyptians to the Romans and even later…it’s impressive!
The iconic Atlas
Zeus
The Farnese Collection includes Roman copies of classical Greek sculpture, which are in many cases the only surviving examples of the lost works of ancient Greek sculptors
Classic statuary at every turn
Some of the finest antiquities from Pompeii
Egyptian hieroglyphic stelae

Gabinetto Segreto

The “Secret Cabinet” (Gabinetto Segreto) is the name given to rooms that hold a fairly extensive collection of erotic or sexual items, mostly from the excavations of Pompeii and Herculaneum. This is a busy part of the museum.
Ok, that’s your prurient fun for the day!
