Beautiful castle on the coast. Undergoing some restoration when I visited. Houses the archaeological museum.. worth the entry even if just for the view from the tip of the castle.

Beautiful views of the area, imposing building. Nice collection of archeological artefacts found in the area. However, little history on the building itself and it has been completely renovated on the inside, so don't expect to walk into a historical looking castle/fortress. Still worthwile, however. As the views are fantastic!

Utterly not worth the walk to get to. The castle itself is ruined photogenically with excessive signage. Very little of the grounds are accessible. The museum inside has NO history about the castle itself, only a few small archeaological collections of roman and prehistoric findings from the area (which does not hold up in comparison to much better museums in Naples). Only positive thing I can say is the view across the bay is very nice.

Three layers of history on three floors - with wonderful panoramic views...

Very nice to walk the grounds and castle wall, but the museum is small and seems to be missing, well a lot. The castle is beautiful and allows a wonderful place to stroll, and overlook the bay of Pozzuoli but the museum is small (or closed?) and lacks any sort of flow or map or understanding what’s on display. Yes there are signs in English and Italian, but they describe the individual items. There’s no comprehensive understanding of the museum or totality of the collection. I was here years ago and I remember being impressed, is the other part closed for renovations or?? They have a nice restroom and a few areas to sit in the shade. Worth a visit, but with reduced expectations for the museum.
