Description
The archaeological museum is housed on the ground floor of this palace, attached near the crossing to the South of the Cathedral building. This museum and the nearby, but separate, Museo Claudio Faina, located on the opposite side of Piazza Duomo, display findings from and around Orvieto. Inaugurated in 1982, the National Museum exhibition displays materials found in the territory up to the 19th century and previously held in the archaeological section pertaining to the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo.
