The Museum includes an important collection of Roman mosaics, covering a period from the 2nd century to the 5th century, which brings together a good part of the pieces discovered in the city, The museum was built on the site of a Roman villa whose spatial organisation it restores: a central courtyard surrounded by a peristyle – courtyard – which gives access to the rooms. There are exhibited objects – sculptures, mosaic paintings, ceramics, etc. – from excavation campaigns carried out at Thysdrus as well as in the vicinity of the city. The museum gives direct access to an “archaeological park” including the remains of the so-called villa of the peacock and of Sollertiana, a superb patrician residence which has preserved many of its mosaic floors in situ.
