The exhibition is punctuated by overhead catwalks accessible from the lower level and partitions which divide the exhibition into thematic spaces. The lower level presents the museum collection. From the mezzanine, an overall perception is possible into the different spaces and the mosaics exposed, making evident their relationship to the site. At the center of the exhibition, an enclosed space shelters the Lycurgue mosaic.
