Il Museo Marta di Taranto

isultati immagini per marta taranto

Via Cavour 10,

aperto tutti i giorni dalle h. 8.30 alla h.19.30, ultimo ingresso h.19.00

Il Museo Nazionale Archeologico di Taranto, MArTA, è sicuramente una delle eccellenze museali italiane. Fu istituito nel 1887 e ha sede, fin da allora, nell’ex Convento del XVIII dei Frati Alcantarini. Poco rimane dell’edificio originario che si sviluppa intorno al perimetro porticato del chiostro.
I numerosi reperti, che emergevano dal sottosuolo di Taranto, conobbero una prima sistemazione sul finire del XIX secolo, a cui sono seguiti nuovi riallestimenti, volti a organizzare, in maniera museograficamente coerente, il ricco patrimonio archeologico qui conservato. Nel corso degli anni, il museo è stato temporaneamente chiuso al pubblico, smantellato e ri-assemblato. Al termine di un lungo percorso di lavori di adeguamento e ristrutturazioni, nel dicembre del 2007, è stato inaugurato il nuovo museo di Taranto, ribattezzato ufficialmente Marta.

Il piano terra ospita gli spazi per le mostre temporanee, mentre nei piani superiori è allestita la ricchissima collezione permanente.

Il percorso espositivo, strettamente legato ai riferimenti territoriali, è organizzato per aree tematiche connesse ai diversi aspetti della vita e della storia dell’area tarantina, all’interno di ampie fasce cronologiche.
Il visitatore potrà ammirare numerosi vasi attici rossi e neri decorati con storie mitologiche; potrà osservare eccezionali sculture in bronzo e marmo e incantarsi difronte a magnifici gioielli in oro e pietre dure, frutto della raffinatissima arte degli orafi locali e testimonianza dello splendore e dell’opulenza raggiunta da questa società.

The Marta Museum in Taranto

isultati immagini per marta taranto

Via Cavour 10,

open daily 8.30 a.m.-7.30 p.m., last admission 7.00 p.m.

The National Archaeological Museum of Taranto, MArTA, is definitely one of the best museums in Italy. It was set up in 1887 and, since then, has been hosted in the former 18th-century Convento dei Frati Alcantarini (Convent of the Alcantarini monks). Not much is left of the original building that develops around the cloister colonnaded perimeter.

The numerous finds, emerging from Taranto subsoil, were first arranged at the end of the 19th century, then new layouts followed aimed at reorganizing its rich archeological heritage in a consistent way at museographical level.

Over the years, the museum has been temporarily closed to the public, dismantled and reassembled; after a long series of regulatory and restoration works, in December 2007, the new Museum of Taranto was inaugurated, officially renamed MArTA.

The ground floor hosts the rooms for temporary exhibitions, whereas on the upper floors the rich permanent collection is arranged.

The exhibition itinerary, closely linked to territorial references, is organized according to thematic areas connected to the various aspects of Taranto area life and history, within broad time periods.

The visitor may admire a lot of black- and red-figure Attic vases, decorated with mythological stories and may be fascinated by gold and semiprecious stone jewels, which are the result of local goldsmiths’ polished art and document this society’s splendor and wealth.
