The Civic Museum at Altomonte
The museum at Altomonte is located at the
height of the village in the old
convent of the Santa Maria della
Consolazione.
It is open from 10AM until 1:00PM in the
mornings and 5:00 to 8:00PM in
the evenings.
At present, they have no information in
English, though the remains and their
dates can be easily understood.
They have numerous ruins that were located
in 1999 surrounding the Noce River from
the Bronze Age and Magna Graecia. Most
of the findings they believe come from the
vast settlement on the river below the
ancient village, between 450 and 540
A.D.
The museum is working hard at present, to
provide English speaking visitors with
further information. |
