Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli

On August 24, 79 AD, Vesuvius erupted in what was to be one of the biggest, deadliest, and most famous vulcano eruptions in the history of mankind... On your visit to the National Archaeological Museum in Naples you will see objects of rare beauty. Many of these silent witnesses to the eruption were unearthed only recently from excavations at Pompeii, Herculaneum, and nearby archaeological sites around Vesuvius and the Phlegraean Fields. Frescoes exhibited in the Wall Paintings Room are mainly portions of decorated wall plaster removed from the buildings buried by the eruption of the Vesuvius in 79 AD. The collection is an exceptional record of the art of decorative painting in Roman times. The fragments represent several themes: mythology and literature, still lives and landscapes, portraits, scenes of daily life, and religious ceremonies related to the household gods.

 Another room shows the wall paintings removed from the temple of Isis in Pompeii.

My son wanted to see the statue of Atlas and we did. Our goal was accomplished and saw many other interesting things. The only thing wrong was when we got there with the downloaded ticket and booking # they said it was not a ticket, however ended up letting us in with some convincing.

You can buy a skip the line ticket and download an audio guide for 5 Euros. You won't lose anything by not paying $ 100+ for a guided group tour

The collection gathered together here is truly marvelous. A treasure of humanity. I really enjoyed viewing the frescoes.

We were supposed to meet someone there at 1:30 to receive our tickets , we got there at 1:15 & waited until 1:45. NO ONE showed up ! We are both mad as hell & want a complete refund.

Paid over $62 for tickets. Could have bought same thing at museum for $22, no line. Don’t waste your money. No one met us for a guided tour. Waited over an hour for guide to meet us, no one showed up. Ticket office would not accept electronic tickets from my phone. Horrible experience

Turning vouchers into tickets was a confusing process, instructions not accurate and frustrating. If you follow the Viator instruction, the .pdf loops you back to the voucher not the actual ticket… to find the ticket barcodes, you have to click on “contact tour operator” and only then will the barcodes (the tickets) appear.

Amazing marble statues, some 20 feet tall and there was probably a few hundred, along with bronze sculptures, bron!e cookware, glass vessels from Pompeii along with even silver serving item 2,000 years old. I did not realized that silver was used in that manner during that time.

To go to this fantastic museum, I had to leave in Salerno the group I was in and go to Naples by train. What attracted me to the museum was the desire to complete my group visits to the ruins of Pompeii, Herculaneum and Paestum, with direct contact with the heritage found there (frescoes, mosaics and various artefacts). It was well worth it!

The voucher that we were told to present at ticket office was not valid. The museum would not issue us a ticket even though we followed instructions. I requested a refund from TripAdvisor but have not heard a thing back. Very embarrassing.

The voucher they provided is not recognized by ANYONE! Almost had to buy new tickets except the ticket office felt sorry for us and let us in. Don't buy these overpriced skip the line tickets . There was no line!
