Museums
The museum, founded in 1823 by Emanuele Barba, is a "Chamber of onders" with various collections, including fossils, weapons, clothing and works by Giovanni Andrea Coppola. It exhibits archaeological finds, sarcophagi, messapic pots, local portraits and a numismatic collection. In 2010, the section on genetic disorders reopened after 10 years.
