Housed in the palace built by Vignola, Vasari and Ammannati for Pope Julius III at the beginning of the 20th century, the museum was established to recognize all of pre-Roman antiquity, in particular the Etruscan civilization. Works in the collection include the famous Sarcophagus of the Spouses, as well as the Pyrgi Tablets and the very elegant Apollo of Veii. The museum foundation was established in 1889.
