The Province of Terni (Italian: Provincia di Terni) is the smaller of the two provinces in the Umbria region of Italy, comprising one-third of both the area and population of the region. Its capital is the city of Terni. The province came into being in 1927, when it was carved out of the original unitary province of Umbria.

This museum has many Roman artefacts and a lot of stone retrieved from the Roman town that became modern Amelia but the principal exhibit is a life size bronze statue of Germanicus. This lay buried (and therefore squashed) until 1963 but sufficiently intact to allow reconstrucion of virtually the whole thing. Those pieces that won't fit are displayed separately. How it has escaped being hauled off to at least a provinvial if not national museum seems incredible - it really has to be seen to be believed. A short film (available in English) explains the full history, both of the man and the statue. We were in the museum for well over an hour and saw no other visitors - early September so outside school holidays but this does deserve to be better known.
