Visit to Reggio Calabria Museum and Cathedral
We are planning a visit to the National Archaeological Museum of Reggio Calabria and Reggio Calabria Cathedral on June 26th from 14:00 to 17:00 (see the Scientific Program).
The exhibition itinerary of the National Archaeological Museum of Reggio Calabria embraces the entire history of the Calabria region but also of Lucanian and Sicilian sites. There are prehistoric finds of great importance, pottery and utensils from the Greek and Roman periods, an important numismatic collection and of course works of art, such as the Riace Bronzes.
Reggio Calabria Cathedral (Italian: Duomo di Reggio Calabria; Basilica Cattedrale Metropolitana di Maria Santissima Assunta in Cielo) is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Reggio Calabria. The cathedral is one of the main icons of the city, along with the Riace Bronzes and the “Italo Falcomatà” waterfront. An identifiable place of par excellence in Reggio Calabria, especially for the community of the faithful, the Duomo, located in the heart of the city centre, shows a neo-Romanesque style with some variations that make it unique in Italy.
++ Although participation is free, tickets must be collected at the time of onsite registration.
