About

The National Archeological Museum of Reggio Calabria, located at Piazza De Nava, 26, is a living cultural hub that showcases the rich heritage of Calabria and the Greek colonies that once thrived along the coast. The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 to 20:00, with the last entrance allowed until 19:30. It offers free luggage storage, a free guide programme for children and families, and an inclusive environment with ramps, elevators, and assistive devices for visitors with disabilities. From the Neolithic artifacts of Level A to the stunning Bronze Riace statues of Level C, visitors can walk through the strata of history and gain a deeper appreciation for the region’s influence on the Mediterranean world. Plan your visit by purchasing tickets online or at the museum, and take advantage of the free entry for visitors under 18, the MArRC pass, and the variety of family‑friendly programmes that make the museum a destination for all ages.
