MUSEI DI VOLTERRA
Discover Volterra: 3,000 years of history in a single emotion!
The Museums of the City of Volterra
In Volterra, every stone tells a story, every museum is a journey through time. In this extraordinary Tuscan city, the charm of the ancient intertwines with art, craftsmanship, and the beauty of breathtaking landscapes.
In the heart of the city, the Guarnacci Etruscan Museum takes you back to the origins of Etruscan civilisation with one-of-a-kind artefacts: the enigmatic Shadow of the Evening, the powerful stele of Avile Tite, and the largest existing collection of Etruscan urns—true stories carved in stone.
Let yourself be enchanted by the Pinacoteca Civica, where the golden light of the gold backgrounds and the works of great masters such as Ghirlandaio, Signorelli and Rosso Fiorentino will make you experience all the magic of mediaeval and Renaissance art.
And then there is the artisan soul of Volterra, told by the Alabaster Ecomuseum: a unique material, worked with passion for centuries, which still today takes shape in the expert hands of local artisans.
Volterra is much more than a city to visit. It is a place to live. The Etruscan Acropolis, the Roman Theatre and the Palazzo dei Priori await you to give you unforgettable views and moments that will remain in your heart.
Come to Volterra. Experience the history. Breathe the beauty.
