The Museo Lapidario of Todi is located within the Lucrezie monastery complex, consisting of the former church of S. Giovanni Battista and two adjacent halls. The complex dates back to the first half of the 15th century, when Madonna Lucrezia della Genga bequeathed to her sisters a building located close to the walls of the city of Todi, in the year 1425. The monastic seat belonging to the Franciscan Third Order expanded within a few years with the purchase of adjacent buildings. The prosperity of the monastery was however hindered first by the economic crisis that affected religious orders at the end of the fifteenth century, then by landslides that hit the area around 1760 and finally by the Napoleonic laws which suppressed religious corporations in 1862. After the First World War the complex, owned by the municipality, was used for different activities; later, according to a special law of 1987 for the consolidation of the cliff of Orvieto and the hill of Todi, the entire structure underwent a substantial restoration intervention. The Lapidarium preserves stone materials of ancient, medieval and modern age that have been found over the centuries in the city and its territory. The museum was moved several times over the years, until it found its current exhibition place in 2008. The museum itinerary includes several sections that follow a chronological order from the Roman age until the nineteenth century.
