The Archaeological Museum of Bari in the heart of the old city
The Archaeological Museum of Bari is located inside the former convent of Santa Scolastica , one of the oldest and most evocative structures in the city (history has it that it was built shortly before the 10th century).
The Museum of Santa Scolastica preserves precious archaeological finds discovered during the numerous excavations carried out from the 20th century to today in various parts of the ancient city of Bari , in the surrounding areas and also in the surrounding area of Bari.
The objects discovered, some of which were found within the Santa Scolastica , bear witness to the city's millennia-long history, spanning a time span from the Bronze to the Middle Ages . This means that the museum features a variety of objects and materials, including stone sculptures, ceramics, terracotta, bronze vases and armor, ancient coins, and much more.
The most interesting aspect of the Archaeological Museum of Santa Scolastica is that it not only houses archaeological finds from various areas of Bari , but is itself a monument of great historical and cultural value thanks to the centuries-old stratifications brought to light by archaeological research carried out inside and outside the former medieval monastery .
