The museum is set up in the keep and small palace of Montebello Castle. It is divided into two sections: historical and archaeological. The historical section exhibits stones (15th-century capitals partly coats of arms, all from Bellinzona, as well as a rare baptismal font believed to be from the 18th century), drawings, sketches, and engravings by well-known Ticino and foreign authors. In the archaeological section, many Ticino artifacts are put on display, starting with the oldest ones-which can be dated back to 1400/1500 years before Christ, mainly ceramics, glassware, cinerary urns, iron and bronze furnishings and jewelry found in various necropolises in Canton Ticino.
