The Museum was established by the Lazio Region in 1989 and is housed in Palazzo Gori; it is distributed on three floors and the finds are exhibited according to provenance and presented in chronological succession and this allows us to trace the fundamental lines of the Sabine civilization.

On the ground floor of the Museum there are, in fact, a series of materials dating back to the Middle and Upper Palaeolithic, an aspect that is particularly interesting given that there was no knowledge of the sites along the Tiber of such ancient times.
