The former Diocesan Museum was designed by the architect and museographer Franco Minissi, commissioned by the then Bishop of Agrigento, Monsignor Giovanni Battista Peruzzo. Built between 1958 and 1963, demolishing the Catholic educational club San Gerlando, the museum was opened to the public in 1964, but it performed its function for a very short period, about two years, since in 1966, due to the landslide that occurred along the south-west side of the historic center of the city, it was closed as a precaution and its collection placed in the Archaeological Museum of San Nicola and in the premises of the nearby Archbishop's Palace.

The Kolymbethra Garden is an archaeological site of great naturalistic and landscape importance, located in a small valley in the heart of the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento. In 1999 the Sicilian Region entrusted it in free concession to the Italian Environment Fund (FAI) for a period of 25 years, putting an end to the situation of abandonment in which it had fallen in the last decades of the twentieth century; As a result of this, it has become one of the places of archaeological/naturalistic interest of great importance at a territorial and national level. The vegetation and structural restoration organized by FAI allows a visit to the Temple of Hephaestus, as well as the discovery of some hypogea.
