By car

There are sveral parking areas very near the building, including reserved parking spaces (marked on the map).

ARCHEOLOGICO


NATIONAL ARCHAEOLOGY MUSEUM

Ticket office

The ticket office is the same as that of Palazzo Ducale and is located under the arches in Piazza Sordello. The reception desk is high for a person in a wheelchair, so you may need the help of a companion or to ask the staff on duty to leave their workstation.
