CIVIC MUSEUM
The Civic Museum offers visitors different routes: you can visit an archaeological section, an art gallery, an ethnographic section, and finally a section dedicated to the history of the city. Almost all the materials present in the various sections come from the territory of Foggia, some are of great value, we limit ourselves to mention some examples of steles belonging to the Daunia civilization and the red-figure pottery of the painter of Arpi. The paintings preserved in the Pinacoteca are by local artists or Neapolitan school. In the ethnographic section are reconstructed rural environments and work tools, very interesting the collection of jewels of local production.
