The Vulcanological Museum

Audioguide about the place

  • Everyday
  • 10 am - 2 pm

The Geonaturalistic Museum of Punta Spadillo, inaugurated in 2010 and created by recovering the ruins of one of the many military structures from World War II, will be the first visitor center of the National Park Authority, thanks to the collaboration and agreement with the Sicilian Region. For many years, it hosted the Vulcanological Museum of the Pantelleria Oriented Nature Reserve.

In the three rooms, approximately 50 samples of rocks are exhibited, representing the eruptive and petrographic variety of Pantelleria, along with many explanatory panels about the island's volcanic history, the different opportunities for nature tourism that the island offers, and its biodiversity.

It is accessible to all visitors who wish to deepen their technical knowledge of the territory, thanks to the collaboration of the technical staff of the National Park, the guides of CAI (Italian Alpine Club), and the Forestry personnel, who will be available to accompany visitors in their understanding of various aspects, ranging from biological endemism, volcanoes, hiking trails, typical agricultural productions, Pantelleria's rural architecture, the history of the island, and its toponymy.
