The Faina Museum is located in the building of the same name in the center of Orvieto, in the province of Terni. The Museum was founded in 1864, initially as a private collection and then donated to the Municipality of Orvieto in 1954. The Museum was named after Claudio Faina, count who inherited the entire archaeological collection on the death of his father Eugenio. Count Faina to pay homage to his father and his city donated the collection in order to enhance it and make it accessible to all. Today it is considered one of the museums with the richest collection in all of Italy. The collection was reunited throughout the nineteenth century and then kept in the museum spaces. The museum presents an archaeological collection from the Greek, Etruscan and Roman ages. In particular, funeral objects, a coin cabinet, numismatic collections and a collection of Attic red and black figure vases are preserved. The ground floor houses the pediments of the Tempio del Belvedere in Orvieto, the warrior-head-shaped cippus that comes from the necropolis of the Crocifisso del Tufo and the Venus of Cannicella, also from the Necropolis of Cannicella. Of great value is the view of the precious Cathedral of Orvieto which can be enjoyed from the first floor of the building.
