  The museum is located just at the entrance of the Etruscan archaeological site of Pian di Misano.
  Around the middle of the XIX century, a VI century BC Etruscan settlement was discovered in this area; excavations led to the creation of an important collection that the owners, the Aria family, donated to the Italian state in 1933 together with the land on which the items where found. 
Sadly, the war hit very harshly the area of Marzabotto and the newly built museum was destroyed. This second museum, restarted in the ‘50s, gathers what’s left of the original collection together with the findings excavated over the past decades. 
The excavation area can also be visited; this includes roads, settlements and the acropolis with the remains of five sacred public buildings used around the V century BC.
