An inspired museum where ancient Roman sculptures are displayed inside a decommissioned early-20th-century power plant, creating a surreal and unforgettable juxtaposition of marble gods against industrial turbines and generators. It's a branch of the Capitoline Museums and holds overflow pieces of genuine quality. Locals adore it for its atmosphere and the fact that tourists rarely make it this far south. One of Rome's most photogenic and conceptually interesting spaces.
