Il Museo Civico di San Ferdinando di Puglia was established in 1984 in accordance with the directives of the Archeoclub of Italy, which pursues “the highest possible placement of the protection and conservation of Cultural Heritage to maintain its stratigraphy for scientific purposes, to make it directly usable by the communities that own it, and to make it a means of permanent education.” It currently occupies the first floor of the former Municipal Headquarters located in Piazza Trieste. Management is entrusted to the local branch of the Archeoclub of Italy, a moral entity. The Museum is divided into two sections: the Ethnographic section collects humble objects of peasant Civilization while the Archaeological section includes a rich collection of material ranging from the Neolithic to the Early Middle Ages. The collection is being enriched with the latest objects coming from Bronze Age settlements in the municipal area and especially from the hypogeic area of Terra di Corte.
