Archeological Museum of Arona
Itineraries From the Park all around
Minitour Arona (2/2) 
The Town's Archeological Museum is the last step of the itinerary coming from the Park. Here are exhibited many of the artifacts found in the Park.
The mould of wooden wheel bears witness of the well documented Bronze Age in the former peat bog of the Lake, where remains of hust and pile of dwellings, as well as ceramic vases and tools were found.
Many well preserved vases and bronze jewels as fibulae, rings, lockets, clasps, belt hooks and beads come from the Golasecca necropolis of Motto Lagone (Iron Age, second half of the 6th - beginnig of the 5th century BC).
Several 2nd - 3rd century Roman cinerary urns were found in the Rio Caneva necropolis, situated in the woods of Comignago, inside the Park. Non less important are other ancient artifacts from the surronding towns, all collected since the '70s and brought here by Arona's Archeological, Historical, Mineralogical Group.
