Near the amphitheater of St. Mary Capua Vetere, there is the small but particular Museum of the Gladiators, entirely dedicated to the reality of the nearby monument. These are three rooms, open to the public since 2003. The room after the entrance houses a large model of the amphitheater as it was in its golden age.
Three of the arch keys that adorned the monument belonged to the real structure, located in the room together with numerous dedicatory inscriptions to Hadrian and Antoninus Pius. The second room, the heart of the museum, displays all the finds and fragments of the amphitheater that have been recovered there, with pieces of great value. Along with reconstructions that make the setting particularly fascinating. The third and last room offers the representation of a gladiator fight.
