Fodor's Expert Review Museo Nazione di Matera (MNM) – Museo Nazionale d'Arte Medievale e Moderna della Basilicata

Housed within the handsome 17th-century Palazzo Lanfranchi, this part of the MNM is divided into three contrasting thematic sections: Sacred Art, Collectibles, and Contemporary Art. You may want to skim through the many restored artifacts from Basilicata's churches and the 300-plus works of the Neapolitan school: the main attraction are the paintings of Carlo Levi and his must-stop-to-absorb humanist masterpiece Lucania '61.
