Created in 1986, this small museum has a wonderful collection of precious objects made of coral, including cameos, totaling over 600 pieces. Located on the premises of the workshop Camo, which specialize in this traditional art, the collection stretches from ancient Roman pieces all the way to the 19th century. Particularly beautiful are the 16th-century Crucifix on a crystal cross and a Madonna from 1532. Be sure to note the 3rd-century-A.D. Roman amphora with a coral formation inside it and a beautiful set of 14 cherub heads from the 18th to 19th centuries.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
