Overview

Experience the history and culture of Messina, one of the largest cities in Sicily together with its historical center. Located in the northeastern part of the island, the city center suffered the disaster of the earthquake on December 28, 1908. The Regional Museum of Messina preserves original decorations and precious works of art, recovered among the ravages of the old city: mosaics, paintings, sculptures, statues, and extremely decorated funerary monuments are just some of the pieces of art exhibited in the halls of the museum. The masterpieces of the Regional Museum of Messina are doubtless the works of art by Antonello da Messina, Montorsoli and Caravaggio provided between the XV and the XVII century. Furthermore, focus on the archaeological exhibition, testifying the past history of Messina when it was a Greek colony (Zancle) and then a province of the Roman Empire. Don’t miss the hypogeum complex of the Monastery of Saint Salvatore dei Greci.
