This exhibition, dedicated to local archaeology, spreads out in three sections: the Museum, the Graveyard and the Captain's Garden. The Museum represents local pre-historical and proto-historical findings, as well as the collections of Egyptian, Copt, Greek, Roman findings and the collection of Maya ceramics. The Graveyard exhibits relieves and inscriptions from Aquileia, Istrian findings dating back to Roman times, the Tempietto in Roman style with the Cenotaphus by Winckelmann and Roman and Greek sculptures. The Graveyard still preserves the towers and the city walls dated 15th- 16th century, the Medieval and Modern Lapidary with inscriptions, coats-of-arms, sculptures and architectural elements saved from the demolitions of the ancient buildings in Trieste.
