Museo Civico

Civic museum archaeological section

The Museo Civico is in the 15th-century Palazzo del Podestà in Montaione and contains prehistoric and archaeological finds ranging from the Lower Palaeolithic to the Late Middle Ages.

The highlight of the palaeontological section is a whale fossil skeleton found in the local area. In the archaeological section an Etruscan stele (6th century BC) resembling a warrior is of particular interest. Explanatory panels deal with the life, art and economy of the area in different historic periods.
