Museo Civico Archeologico (Municipal Archaeological Museum)
Museo Civico Archeologico (Municipal Archaeological Museum) Review
Appropriately situated in the heart of Roman Milan, this museum housed in a former monastery displays everyday utensils, jewelry, silver plate, and several fine examples of mosaic pavement from Mediolanum, the ancient Roman name for Milan. The museum opens into a garden that is flanked by the square tower of the roman circus and the polygonal Ansperto tower, adorned with frescoes dating to the end of the 13th and 14th centuries, portraying St. Francis and other saints receiving the stigmata.
