Reasons why you can’t find these arts in a museums.

For a long time, museums refused to present archaeological finds that were considered obscene. In this context, museums have assessed the objects themselves by developing their own taxonomy.

In the excavation sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum, numerous archaeological artifacts were discovered that were classified as pornographic.

Roman society was much more open about sexuality and nudity than the National Archaeological Museum of Naples, which exhibits the pieces. For years, the particularly erotic exhibits could only be found in the Secret Cabinet.


This section of the museum had been closed since 1821. In 1849 even the door was bricked up. The Secret Cabinet was finally opened in 2000.


The selection ranges from erotic frescoes, sexually explicit symbols to everyday objects in the form of a phallus. You can also admire the shepherd god Pan having sex with a goat.


In today's world, most exhibits can hardly be considered so disgraceful as to be unsuitable for the eyes of innocent visitors.
