Two thousand years underfoot: an underground museum in Lecce
An hour among the layers of history beneath a Lecce house, open every day.
What you do
Imagine living in a house and finding two thousand years of history beneath your feet. That is the idea behind this museum in Lecce, and its theme says it all: two thousand years underfoot.
The visit takes about an hour. You go down, look around and realise how much history has piled up in a single spot of the city. It is a short visit that changes the way you walk around Lecce.
It is open every day from 9:30am to 8pm, so it fits into almost any day.
By bike
With opening hours this long, it is the easiest visit to fit in. Go early in the morning before picking up your bike at our Lecce base, via Ribezzo 2D, or on your way back after returning it for free.
I prepare your self-guided route with GPX and a roadbook and leave the museum hour wherever it suits you. If you start from San Foca or Calimera, pick up the bike there and lock it in town with the lock provided. And on a day without the bike, it is a perfect stop on foot.
