MUSEO ARCHEOLOGICO NAZIONALE DELLA VALLE CAMONICA

Statues, portraits and amulets charged with symbolism: the encounter between the Roman civilisation and the ancient Camuni comes to life in the new National Archaeological Museum of the Camonica Valley. Opened in June 2021 in the heart of Cividate Camuno - the ancient Civitas Camunnorum - the museum reveals itself as a precious casket, guardian of one of the most surprising archaeological realities in the Alps.

The exhibition guides the visitor through the many faces of Romanisation: from the transformation of the landscape to religious cults, from everyday life to monumental public spaces and the funerary sphere. It is not just an extension of the old site, but a response to the challenges of modern museology: to give breath to an ever-growing heritage, to update the scientific narrative and to adopt new visual languages in order to engage a public with constantly changing cognitive models.
