Things to do in Arpino Italy – what to see attractions and activities

In this museum there are very interesting finds from prehistory to the Romans.

The International Museum of Folklore and Peasant Civilization is a cultural and ethnographic center set up in the Regional Center for Popular Arts and Traditions. The structure was created with the aim of promoting and enhancing folklore and customs. Every year all the folk groups that perform at the folk festival contribute to enriching the Museum with their cultures.

The Archaeological Museum of Atina is one of the most important civic museums in the area. The latter was officially known in 1978 and was born to collect and show the public the archaeological findings. The museum is divided into five rooms (A, B, C, D, E). Inside the museum, in addition to a large collection of archaeological objects from the Comino valley, we also find the prehistoric finds of Samnite and Roman. It is currently open to all interested in history and art.

The Museum was inaugurated in 1987, thanks to the great work of the pharmacist Giulio di Pinto. It is a huge collection consisting of healthy plants, coming from Veroli, and preparations of ancient origins. The museum offers extensive information on the history of folk medicine, and can be visited upon reservation.

The Castello Dei Conti De Ceccano is of medieval origin, but, over the years, it underwent restoration for various historical reasons. His path is divided into three phases, in which he passed into the hands of several noble families, and lost its main function, becoming a prison until 1973. From that moment on, it was managed by the municipality. Today, you can visit it for free, but on request and reservation.
