Must visit if you also plan to do Pompeii ruins. Amazing mosaics and historical references. Don't miss the basement section past the Egyptian portion for more interesting Pompeii history.

If you plan going to Pompeii or Ercolano visit this museum first - the best items from the excavations. Many boring items though, skip some halls. The "secret" room with porn frescoes is really funny.

One of the world's best collections of Greek and Roman antiquities : mosaics , sculptures , gems, glass & silver, collection of Roman erotica from Pompeii . It is one of Italy's top archeology museums

It boasts supersized statues as well as art and decorations of Pompeii and Herculaneum , the two ancient burgs that were buried in ash by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79.

For English speakers there are plenty of translations (so you don't need the audio guide). The diorama of Pompeii is excellent - but best viewed after you've been there

Needs some more care from the government, for sure. Great collection and a must see but 1/3 is loaned/restoring/closed.

Worth seeing museum , big and spacious enough, you have to sit for about 2 hours to see all the collections preserved from the pompei ruins and more! No discount for the students :(

When Pompeii was excavated in the late 1700s, Naples’ Bourbon king bellowed, “Bring me the best of what you find!” The finest art and artifacts ended up here,

Very worth seeing all the preserved artifacts of Pompeii ! History here avoided the revisions common to other sites, thanks to pyroclastic flow.

Great place to spend your time on a rainy day, come here after seeing pompeii or herculeneum. You get discounts with artecard

Secret cabinet and mosaics (1st floor) and frescoes (2nd floor) from Pompeii are worthy of a short visit (~1h). There's a free WiFi . You can leave only backpacks in the garderobe ????

The building is very beautiful, especially the inside of it and of course the things you can see as they are presented in a nice way!

Start at the top floor (with the ticket to the Magna Grecia) and work your way down to appreciate the richness of the collection.

You probably need to do this over two days or take a guide with you who can point out the important items. What have the Romans done for us? Quite a lot!!

The ticket is quite expensive 9€ for students, 13€ normal, but it deserve to understand better the history of Pompei /Herculaneum . You need a couple of hours to see the entire collection.

If you went to see Pompeii or Herculaneum , you must go here to see the artifacts recovered from the scavi. A truly spectacular collection of antiquities .

16th National Archaeological Museum - Naples (Visitors: 288.145)Here in 1777 Ferdinando IV set up the Farnese collection and exhibited the articles found in Herculaneum and Pompei .

Worth the entry fee, really beautifully presented sculpture of a scale I hadn't seen before. Plus all the good stuff from Pompeii ...

Dress in layers; it can get really warm inside. Not much info in English, so if you want interpretation, get the audio tour .

Amazing place. While the summertime, lot of rooms are close due to a lack of staff .

A large collection of art , sculptures , paintings , and artifacts from Pompeii .

The Museum is under restauration (too bad they did not do the works when National Institusutions were locked down because of Covid-19), so I could not access the erotic painting of Pompei AND - for ex

Must see, goes well with a trip to Pompeii as well

Loved this museum . Admission was included with our Go Ahead Tour

Really interesting and not too big museum . Worth the price.

They don't let you leave small-ish bags in the cloak room, even if they're heavy :( ... Some great stuff, though the day I went half the rooms are closed (I hear that happens in summer).

Amazing collection of antiquities

Amazing collection of mosaics and other ancient relics! I could spend hours in here!

Goes hand-in-hand with a visit to Pompei . Inside tip: there's more to see here than in the ruins themselves!

Beware: no air-conditioning. Might get VERY hot and stuffy. Also large parts of the museum are closed/empty, other parts close mid-day.

Remarkable discoveries from the prehistoric to medieval eras, including excavations at Pompeii .

English explanations are limited...but it is well worth the visit!

Awesome museum in the heart of Naples

As regards archaeology, it's the most important museum of the world

Trip to Pompeii is not complete without seeing this excellent museum .

Check out the Secret Chamber!

O Museu Arqueológico é uma visita obrigatória em Nápoles. A parte relacionada a Pompéia é incrível, principalmente pela beleza e riqueza dos mosaicos , estátuas e como era o dia-a-dia dos habitante.

Лучший археологический музей Европы (а видено многое ;)) Сюда утащили: лучшие фрески из Помпей , лучшие мозаики оттуда же и из Геркуланума; лучшие скульптуры из терм Каракалла и т.д. Бык Фарнезе - !!!

Museo da visitare assolutamente. Ci sono tantissime sezioni interessanti e prestigiose. Da dedicare almeno mezza giornata.

Armodio ed Aristigitone, il gabinetto segreto , il Fauno, Roma e la Grecia a Napoli. Il mio posto del cuore!

Tolle Statuen und atemberaubende Mosaike . Das Museeumskaffee ist allerdings eine sehr triste Angelegenheit.

Vale a pena para conhecer. O museu é enorme, tem todas as indicações e as histórias das obras!

Espectacular museo . No se pierdan la sala con arte erótico de Pompeya es muy revelador.

Dünyadaki en güzel herkül heykelinin , bilinen tek büyük iskender fresk'inin bulunduğu müze . Muhteşem pompei buluntuları ve sayısız eserler...
