Clarisse - casa della cultura
About This Museum
People often wander into the Clarisse looking for a quiet moment away from Grosseto's sun, but they stay for the stories. It’s not a stuffy museum; it feels more like walking through the town's collective memory, where each room holds a different conversation with the past. You might find yourself captivated by a temporary photography exhibit one week and an intimate display of local Etruscan finds the next. It’s the kind of place that leaves you feeling like you’ve uncovered a secret, not just seen an exhibition.
Collection Highlights
The rotating exhibits are the real heart of the place—everything from contemporary art to artifacts dug up from the Maremma soil. Don't miss the glimpses into Grosseto's more recent past, with photographs and objects that tell the tale of the 20th century here.
Visitor Information
Tucked away on Via Vinzaglio, it's a peaceful spot that's usually free to enter. Just check their hours as they can change with the exhibition schedule.
Architecture & Building
The building itself is a piece of history, a beautifully restored former convent with high, vaulted ceilings and thick walls that seem to whisper.
