Il museo delle mummie di Borgo Cerreto si trova all’interno del Centro di documentazione “Baronzio Vincenzi”, un polo scientifico e culturale nato su una prima raccolta di reperti archeologici legati alla vita del medico omonimo.

Il museo è ospitato all’interno di un edificio cinquecentesco, un tempo chiesa della famiglia Vincenzi, ed è diviso su tre piani: una sala polivalente nel piano a livello stradale, due sale espositive che conservano i reperti antropologici che si trovano al livello delle cripte e, nella parte più bassa, un laboratorio permanente per lo studio dei reperti.

Il Museo delle mummie presenta una serie di aspetti della vita di Cerreto di Spoleto attraverso i corpi mummificati di alcuni suoi abitanti rinvenuti nelle cripte della Chiesa e oggi ospitati all’interno delle sale del museo; lo studio delle mummie ha permesso agli antropologi di ricostruire particolari della vita quotidiana, dell’alimentazione, dell’abbigliamento e delle pratiche chirurgiche della comunità di Borgo Cerreto.

La mostra permanente si articola in due sezioni, una didattica (18 pannelli descrittivi con testi e immagini) ed una espositiva (due mummie e tre crani che testimoniano l’attività chirurgica di Baronzio Vincenzi).

Lo spazio espositivo, inaugurato il 27 agosto 2011 apre tutti i giorni dalle 9:00 alle 13:00 e dalle 15:00 alle 19:00, su prenotazione (349 -7060538).
