Museo di Archeologia dell'Università di Catania

I really would like to put here more stars as the museum has very friendly staff and has a great potential but... There are really but two rooms of it. Sure they are filled with interesting findings dating from the earliest settlement findings to Greek and Roman times if you into ceramics (I am, this is not a sarcasm), and you can read some interesting facts regarding Catania settlement and some more general ones. But seriously... two rooms in the place that is literally build on such a gigantic excavation site? And why just till Romans? There was plenty of history here later as well, as much interesting. And even for the part that is on the display: people are living in Catania for millennia, I am kinda sure there is more to show than two relatively small rooms.Don't get me wrong: if you into history and archaeology it is still worth to visit. Just if you are really into it you probably expect a vast and reach exposition that will take you for the journey through time for the whole day the least, not less than hour...No entrance fee is a plus of course, but I would really gladly pay to see what you keep in the storage here!

Bellissimo con reperti unici ❤️ consigliato!!Si trova presso il palazzo Ingrassia di piazza Dante

Incantevole!

Interesting little museum inside the university. Great to see all the fake copy or reproductions (whatever you want to call them). I’d never seen something like this before
