Stunning collection! Definitely worth the visit. Still speechless with the power of Carlo Levi’s life and work

Nice stop, but nothing too ordinary. Nothing special 😔 there is more interesting stops you can make in Matera if you're into art, museums, but if it's typically paintings you want, that's your home!

There are some interesting things on display here but we found it quite difficult to find our way around the exhibits abdominal explanations are not always easy to find. The building itself is light and airy and pleasant to walk around. On the day that we visited, newly weds were having their photos taken abdominal it mams a good setting. The exterior is interesting too.

One of the must-visit museums in the area. The first and third floors are temporary exhibitions of contemporary art, and the second floor exhibits a collection of altarpieces, portraits and Matera local landscape paintings. The great thing is that the access is free for art students. Next to the museum is a good spot to shoot night views of sassi.

This is an art and photography museum. Or rather, those were the things on display when I visited. The person at the reception was not as cordial as one would expect, but perhaps they were having a bad day, and that's ok. A pleasant visit on the whole. Please note that the toilet facilities are hidden and not easily found. Also the direction one should take on the lower floor was not that clear.

The Museum has an huge collection, carefully placed in a way that makes it easy and pleasant to navigate it. Many pieces are of exquisite quality and some really unique and worth alone the visit. The price at this time (4€) is definitely fair and affordable.

A must for those who want to know deeper about the local history and culture - better combined with a few books such as the one I mention below. Building with a noble architecture and breathtaking views. I recommend people reading Carlo Levi's book Cristo si è fermato ad Eboli before seeing his paintings, it'll give a very special meaning of what they represent for the local history. They also have seasonal displays of both modern and old art - right now one of the shows is about the famous Italian comics named Diabolik (there are also movies based on the comics ofc).
