    Small but terrific, very moving museum (and optional walking tour) that gives you a good sense of the rich history of long-gone Jewish Lecce. Our guide, Martina, was a delight and really knew her history. Worth a visit and lending your support as the Museum seeks to expand its work and collections.

    This is a wonderful museum. Lots of interesting trains and old carriages to view and go inside (including a creepy prison train!), some lovely steam engines and some really well thought out and beautifully presented displays of train memorabilia from around Europe. At the end there are some fabulous model railways. The staff are super friendly and enthusiastic. There is good English information available. It's not hard to find, just a 20 min walk from the old town. Highly recommended way to spend a morning in Lecce.

    I was at the museum last summer and thought it was great. It has a lovely sculpture by Vespasiano Genuino. However, I was bummed to go today only to find that it is currently closed for renovation. Estimated to re-open in July 2019.

    What a wonderful, surprising and humbling experience. Francesco guides you through his awesome collection of musical instruments, with delightful humour and expertise. It was an absolute privilege to be allowed into this extraordinary home museum.

    A small but beautiful and unique museum in Lecce to understand more about the archeological history of the Salento region in Puglia. The rooms have been nicely furnished with a map and timeline and the objects presented in the showcases show a good chronological overview of the history of the Salento region starting from the prehistory until the Late Medieval times.

    This museum is included on the €9 ticket for the other churches. It features some old artwork to peruse which is perfect if you’re into that sort of thing.
