The Museo regionale Agostino Pepoli is an art, archaeology and local history museum in Trapani. It is one of the most important museums in Sicily.

Established in 1906-1908 as the civic museum by count Agostino Pepoli and initially based on the private collection of count Sieri Pepoli and Neapolitan paintings donated by general Giovanbattista Fardella, it is based in a former 14th century Carmelite monastery next to the Basilica-santuario di Maria Santissima Annunziata. In 1921 it acquired count Francesco Hernandez di Erice's collection of cribs, ceramics and archaeological objects

In 1925 it became the Regio museo, after the Second World War it became a national museum and finally in 1977 it was again renamed, this time the museum of the Sicilian Region.
