MUSEO CIVICO ARCHEOLOGICO CITTÀ ALTA BERGAMO GEOSAPIENS
Il museo venne fondato nel 1561 ed ospitato nella loggia sotto il Palazzo della Ragione.
In seguito, nel 1770, la collezione venne trasferita in un edificio sopra il Fontanone.
Dopo l'arricchimento, dovuto alle collezioni del conte Paolo Vimercati Sozzi e di Gaetano Mantovani(che erano state riunite in un'unica sede, la Rocca), nel 1960 il museo venne riallestito nel Palazzo Visconteo della Cittadella, sua sede attuale. Con questa sistemazione fu riorganizzato secondo criteri più moderni e con un'attenzione particolare verso la didattica, concretizzata in un più stretto rapporto con le scuole.
Nel 1981 è stato fondato il Centro Didattico-culturale, che si occupa di attività rivolte alle scuole e in questa azione collabora l'Associazione Amici del Museo istituita nel 1982.
È previsto in un futuro il suo trasferimento in una sede più ampia.
Il Museo Archeologico assume una particolare importanza per la conoscenza storica di Bergamo e del suo territorio, testimoniandone, con i propri reperti, l'evoluzione e le influenze delle genti, che l'hanno attraversati, sullo sviluppo sociopolitico della comunità che vi si andava formando.
Non deposito imbalsamato di muti reperti archeologici ma memoria parlante del percorso storico vissuto dal territorio.
Lo sviluppo espositivo descrive didascalicamente, secondo moderni principi museali, le avventure della storia che ha interessato la bergamasca dalle più lontane origini al Basso Medioevo.

Bergamo is a city in Lombardy, Italy, about 40 km northeast of Milan and 30 km from the lakes Como and Iseo. The foothills of the Bergamo Alps begin immediately north of the town. Bergamo is the seat of the Province of Bergamo
The upper city ( La Citta Alta ) , surrounded by Venetian walls built in the 16th century, forms the historic centre of Bergamo. La Citta Alta is an extremely expensive place to live in, with properties being sold for five to twelve thousand euro per square meter. La Citta Alta has numerous places of interest including:
Cittadella (Citadel), built by the Visconti in the mid-14th century.
Piazza Vecchia (old square)
Palazzo della Ragione. This was the seat of the administration of the city in the age of the communes. Currently it houses a selection of paintings from the Accademia Carrara. Erected in the 12th century, it was rebuilt in the late 16th century by Pietro Isabello. The façade has the lion of St. Mark over a mullioned window, testifying to the long period of Venetian dominance. The atrium has a well-preserved 18th-century sundial.
Palazzo Nuovo (Biblioteca Angelo Mai). It was designed by Vincenzo Scamozzi in the early 17th century but only completed in 1928.
Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore (Saint Mary Major). It was built from 1137 on the site of a previous religious edifice of the 7th century. Construction continued until the 15th century. Of this first building the external Romanesque structure and the Greek cross plan remain. The interior was extensively modified in the 16th and 17th centuries. The dome has frescoes by Giovanbattista Tiepolo. Noteworthy are the great Crucifix and the tomb of Gaetano Donizetti.
Cappella Colleoni (Colleoni chapel), annexed to Santa Maria Maggiore, is a masterwork of Renaissance architecture and decorative art. It contains the tomb of the condottiere Bartolomeo Colleoni.
The Battistero (Baptistry), an elegant octagonal building dating from 1340.
Bergamo Cathedral (Duomo). This was built in the late 17th century with later modifications.
Rocca (Castle). It was begun in 1331 on the hill of Sant'Eufemia by William of Castelbarco, vicar of John of Bohemia, and later completed by Azzone Visconti. A wider citadel was added, but is now partly lost. The Venetians built a large tower in the Rocca, as well as a line of walls (Mura Veneziane) 6,200 metres long.
San Michele al Pozzo Bianco. Built in the 12th century, this church contains a wealth of frescos from the 12th to the 16th centuries, including paintings by Lorenzo Lotto.
Museo Civico Archeologico (Archaeological Civic Museum) This is housed in the Cittadella.
Museo di Scienze Naturali Enrico Caffi (Caffi Natural Science Museum) This is also housed in the Cittadella.
Orto Botanico di Bergamo Lorenzo Rota (botanical garden).
Città Alta and its surroundings are part of the Parco dei Colli di Bergamo.

Bergamo is a city in Lombardy, Italy, about 40 km northeast of Milan and 30 km from the lakes Como and Iseo. The foothills of the Bergamo Alps begin immediately north of the town. Bergamo is the seat of the Province of Bergamo.
The town has two centres: Città alta (upper city), a hilltop medieval town, surrounded by 16th-century cyclopic defensive walls, and the Città bassa (lower city). The two parts of the town are connected by funicular/cable car, roads, and foot-paths. Parking spaces are very limited in the upper city.

The lower city is the modern centre of Bergamo. At the end of the 19th century Città Bassa was composed of residential neighborhoods built along the main roads that linked Bergamo to the other cities of Lombardy. The main boroughs were Borgo Palazzo along the road to Brescia, Borgo San Leonardo along the road to Milan and Borgo Santa Caterina along the road to Valle Seriana. The city rapidly expanded during the 20th century. In the first decades, the municipality erected major buildings like the new courthouse and various administrative offices in the lower part of Bergamo in order to create a new center of the city. After World War II many residential buildings were constructed in the lower part of the city which are now divided into several neighborhoods such as Longuelo, Colognola, Malpensata and Boccaleone, Redona and Valtesse among many others. The shopping district developed shortly after, now commonly known as the street the shops are located on Via 20 Settembre. The church Santo Spirito exhibits the altarpiece by Lorenzo Lotto Madonna and Child with Saints. The most relevant sites are:
Pinacoteca dell'Accademia Carrara

Bergamo is an Italian city northeast of Milan, in the Lombardy region. Its older upper district, called Città Alta, is characterized by cobblestone streets, encircled by Venetian walls and accessible by funicular. It's home to the Duomo di Bergamo, the city cathedral. Also here are the Romanesque Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore and the grand Cappella Colleoni, a chapel with 18th-century frescoes by Tiepolo.
Bergamo is a city in Lombardy, Italy, about 40 km (25 mi) northeast of Milan and 30 km (19 mi) from the lakes Como and Iseo. The foothills of the Bergamo Alps begin immediately north of the town. Bergamo is the seat of the Province of Bergamo. With a population of around 120,000, Bergamo is the fourth-largest city in Lombardy. The metropolitan area of Bergamo extends beyond the administrative city limits.
Bergamo is well connected to several cities in Europe and the Mediterranean through Il Caravaggio International Airport, the third-busiest airport in Italy with 10.5 million passengers in 2015, and the motorway A4 stretching on the axis between Milan, Verona, and Venice. The town has two centres: Città alta (upper city), a hilltop medieval town, surrounded by 16th-century cyclopic defensive walls, and the Città bassa (lower city). The two parts of the town are connected by funicular/cable car, roads, and foot-paths. Parking spaces are very limited in the upper city.

100 anni di Museo Caffi - Bergamo
Per il suo centesimo compleanno, il Museo di Scienze Naturali E. Caffi ha invaso la città con le più feroci creature di sempre: i dinosauri. Incuriositi ne abbiamo seguito le tracce e guidati dal responsabile della sezione zoologia, il Dr. Marco Valle, abbiamo scoperto la ricca collezione che si trova all’interno : preziosi reperti paleontologici e zoologici provenienti da tutto il mondo, esemplari viventi di insetti e molto altro, comprese le attività didattiche e interattive per i bambini. Un divertente viaggio nel passato per trascorrere una piacevole esperienza alternativa per grandi e piccini.
