This atmospheric museum is housed in a handsome old tower house of the 13th century. If it feels as if someone still lives here but has just stepped out, that’s because it’s true; the owners (direct descendants of the original Italian aristocrat owners) continue to live here a few months each winter. Wander through their rooms to see how the original owners lived, what they wore and how they furnished their rooms. Guiding is often possible (or self-guiding).
The museum is within the Kastro ramparts (by the northwest gate). There are changing art exhibitions in the vaults. Concerts and other events are frequently staged in the museum and its grounds.
