The M.I.C. International Museum of Ceramics is one of the most important ceramic art museums in the world, and is located in Faenza.
In the exhibition rooms the works of Italian ceramic workshops from the Middle Ages to the nineteenth century are collected; of the Ancient Near East; from the Mediterranean area in the Hellenistic period; pre-Columbian and Islamic. A large section is dedicated to modern and contemporary ceramics.
Since 1963 the Museum has promoted, every two years, an international competition on artistic ceramics, which has allowed it to expand its collections with works from all over the world.
Since 2011, the museum boasts the recognition of "Monument witnessing a culture of peace", awarded by UNESCO.
