First, do not go here if you do not like the sight of preserved human body parts. This museum is home to many anatomical structures which have been preserved or mummified. Personally I found it fascinating, Inspiring as an artist also, but there are quiet moments of sadness. The collection is incredible and are well displayed. There are descriptions inside the display cabinet but only in Italian but you can get a tablet from the host and this will guide you through many of the displays in English. I dont know what other languages they have. We had a bit of difficulty finding the museum and ended up going through the back door. Its only open until 2pm only so come early! You need around 1-1.5 hours here to really study the works on display. You can take the metro here and you need take Line/Linea 1 and get off at stop MUSEU - It really is a captivating museum if you are interested in anatomy, science/medicine, the human analysis, etc. The host was very helpful, pleasant and welcoming. Very polite indeed! There is no admission into this museum, its free! Definitely highly recommened!

La struttura, ubicata a circa 300 metri dalle Grotte di Pertosa-Auletta, propone un itinerario di conoscenza dedicato alla terra, e più precisamente a ciò che avviene in quei tre metri, fondamentali per la vita sul nostro pianeta, che dalla superficie si portano in basso. Dalla terra delle formiche, alla fauna che popola il sottosuolo, al mondo delle radici, ai diversi tipi di terreno, al mistero della creazione dell’humus, tra viaggi virtuali, installazioni di reperti e materiali naturali, fino alle collezioni vegetali. Un viaggio alla scoperta dei processi di formazione dei suoli, dei loro rapporti con gli ecosistemi, le comunità viventi ed i paesaggi, della interazione di lunga durata con le società umane.

This is an extremely well laid out museum containing a number of fascinating artefacts. It is easy to follow the sequence of archaeological periods and relate them to other places. Do not miss this if you're in the area: it's almost worth making a special trip.
