What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors find the combined ticket for the Pollentia Monographic Museum and Roman ruins to be excellent value at around €4. The museum's artifacts are well-displayed and complement the extensive Roman site, offering a comprehensive historical experience. However, some note the museum is small, and the ruins can be very hot and exposed during peak summer afternoons.
"A small museum hosting some artefacts from the excavations a bit south of itself. Tickets are bought at the excavations, and are worth 4 euro, at least jan.2025. The museum itself is very small and not that amazing, but it does fill the void in the explanation you can listen on the site of Pol-lèntia"
Marin “SayanMk” Kolev
"I really enjoy these historic finds and archaeological digs, there’s still so much to find.
This museum has some very fine artefacts that are being well cared for.
The museum shows artefacts from the Roman site over the road
This site covers quite a large expanse of land and requires about 20 minutes of walking.
I’m here in June, mid afternoon and it’s very hot, bring a hat and water. Or come early on.
The entrance fee is €4 which does include a visit to the Museum over the road which has some excellent finds and depictions
There is the site of the town, the square and amphitheatre, also is a burial site and well. Many more things they know about and need to dig.
An interesting hour
Parking close by."

"Some fine artefacts, well displayed, although the museum is small and low key for an important Roman site"
