The MAR Roman Archaeological Museum is located in Positano in the famous town of the Amalfi Coast. The Museum brings to light only a part of the Roman villa of idleness, which is located under the oratory of the Church of SS. Maria Assunta. The villa still perfectly preserves the mosaic flooring and the Pompeian-style wall paintings with the colors of red, yellow, black, blue and white. Thanks to the restorations it was possible to bring to light a part of the Roman Villa. Through an aerial path in glass and steel it is possible to visit the villa from above. The walkway was built to allow the visitor to understand the historical layering of the medieval villa and church. During the excavations, numerous bronze artifacts were found such as containers and dishes for cooking the dishes. Today the finds are kept on the upper floor of the villa. The Museum has made it essential to use multimedia and educational videos that reconstruct the original environments and place the finds in their original spaces. During the visit it is possible to admire the medieval crypts. In particular, the upper crypt opens in the center giving space to the entrance walkway for viewing the Villa.
