Nestled within the National Archaeological Museum of Paestum lies an extraordinary compilation of artifacts sourced from the nearby Doric temples of Paestum, widely acclaimed as among the world's best-preserved ancient Greek temples. Within the museum, you can delve into the details of friezes, metopes, and triglyphs. Moreover, numerous tomb paintings present a window into the daily lives, religious beliefs, and social customs of the ancient residents of Poseidonia.
