Farneta Museum
Attached to the Benedictine Abbey of Farneta
(11th century), this museum consists of two sections: an archaeological
collection (a Roman tomb, three Etruscan travertine urns, a
holy-water stoup, several Roman sculptures) alongside two 14th-century
terracotta statues portraying St. Peter and St. Paul, and 16
paintings dating to the 17th century. The other section is devoted
to palaeontology with fossil remains of Pliocenic fauna (a Helephas
Meridionalis, a Helephas Antiquus).
