The Best Specialty Museums in Naples

I'm Anna Maria Priora, an Italian licensed tour guide with a PhD in WWII history in Italy at the Humboldt University of Berlin. I will be happy to share with you the most important events of the 4 Battles of Cassino, but also the personal Veterans' stories, remembering that memory is very important for our future! I will pick you up with my Italian Minivan at the train station of Cassino and I will start to show you shortly the new town, totally rebuilt after the war. We will stop in the town, where the German Headquarter was, and then we will see Castle Hill (where the Kiwis and the Gurkas tried to attack the Abbey) and at the Belvedere, where I will show you the Liri valley where the battles took place. We are going to visit the Abbey of Monte Cassino on a WW2 point of view, and then we will pay a visit to the Commonwealt Cemetery.

The National Archaeological Museum of Naples is a precious treasure chest ranging from the collection of finds from Magna Grecia, to the first Egyptian collection opened in a modern museum, to the monumental collection of statues of the Farnese family, with the Hercules and the imposing group del Toro, ending with the spectacular display of the thousands of finds excavated from 1738 in the cities of Ercolano, Pompei, Stabia, Oplonti: mosaics, objects of everyday life, the erotic objects of the surprising secret Cabinet, the frescoes, which will bring us back back in time to 79 AD, the year in which Vesuvius destroyed the cities around its perimeter. And all of this is inserted in the majestic seventeenth-century palace, which today faces the end of one of the most important arteries of the historic center of Naples.
