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

The Civic and Diocesan Museum “La Castellina”, built in 1967, after a long period of closure, was reopened in 1996 as a permanent exhibition. This is based in the main floor of La Castellina, a fortress built in 1554 on a project by Jacopo Barozzi, by the will of Pope Giulio III. The museum itinerary is divided into three sections: the Collection of the Civic and Diocesan Museum, which brings together works of art owned by ecclesiastical or municipal, dating from the twelfth and eighteenth centuries, the Collection Massenzi and the Permanent Archaeological Exhibition “Leave for the Afterlife”.
