 Archaeological Park and Roman Antiquarium Alda Levi
The aim of this park is to preserve the archaeological pieces of the Roman Amphitheatre which has been discovered in this area. The Antiquarium annexed to the arena illustrates the role of amphitheatres in general, and the functioning of Milan's one in particular. It also houses the collection of all the archaeological pieces found in this zone.

 The Archaeological Museum
It is situated in the complex of the Monastero Maggiore, which was built in the 9th century: the cloister contains the only remaining still standing tower of the Roman walls, built under Emperor Massimianus. The exhibition path starts from the area in Corso Magenta, that mostly houses finds dating back to ancient Milan, and continues in the brand new location of Via Nirone. In this part of the museum there are three sections dedicated to Lombardy in the early Middle Ages, Etruscan and Greek world. The upper floor is a new space for temporary exhibitions, at present dedicated to music in the ancient world.

 The Guido Sutermeister Museum
It is the memorial collector of the oldest historical-artistic heritage in the community: in fact, it preserves exhibits that range from the Bronze age (2100 - 1800 BC) to the Lombardy era (VI-VII century A.D) with particular reference to records from Imperial Roman times. One significant piece in the museum is the triptych by the Pointillist painter Gaetano Previati (1852-1920) dedicated to the battle of Legnano and housed in the reconstructed fifteenth century house of the Lampugnani.

 The Roman Theatre Museum
The Roman theatre was built in the 1st century BC and is one of the oldest public buildings in Milan. It has a semicircular plan and is almost 20 meters high with a 95 meter diameter auditorium that can hold 7-8.000 spectators. It is located at the centre of an area which includes other important Roman remains. The multimedia and sensorial pathway has been laid out to give today's visitors the experience and emotions of Milanese life of the time. Sights, sounds and smells transform the trip back to ancient Mediolanum into a journey involving all the senses.
