The museum displays an incredible group of ancient roman ships, one of the most important discoveries of the last 20 years. In fact, the wrecks of some 30 ships were found during the excavation. Not only wooden structures were found intact, but most of the ships had their load still on board. The wooden ships are incredibly well-preserved due to the layers of sand and clay that sheltered them from the implacable passing of time. Four of them, fully restored, are now visible inside the museum. But what caused such an impressive number of shipwrecks? The true reason for these tragedies was a series of catastrophic floods, caused by man's intervention. Yet the ancients roman ships are not the only attraction of the museum, which in fact hosts an incredible ensemble of exhibits that will lead you to the ancient and fascinating history of Pisa.
