Stibbert Museum

After Piazza della Libertà, called the Ponte Rossa zone, you take Via Vittorio Emanuele II to arrive at a villa refurbished in a medieval style.

This museum was established in the years 1860 and 1870, by Frederick Stibbert, an Englishman whose mother was Italian. It is a rich, heterogeneous collection of Tapestries, chinaware, Napoleonic memorabilia, and paintings by Luca Giordano, Giovanbattista Tiepolo, Carlo Crivetti and Neri di Bicci.
There is also a noteworthy collection of arms and armor ranging from ancient Roman times to the Renaissance, including a well-documented oriental section.
Stibbert's interest in the arts of war culminate in the celebrated, but a little fanciful, cavalcade made up of 14 armed cavaliers wearing 15th and 16th century costumes.
