Founded in the 1930s, the museum houses a valuable collection of medieval and Renaissance sacred art from the local diocese, featuring works by artists such as Bramantino and unique liturgical pieces that illustrate the evolution of religious art in Italy. Its importance lies in preserving ecclesiastical heritage and offering insights into the spiritual history of the region. It is a cultural treasure for understanding the influence of the Church on Italian art.

Spring (April-June) or autumn (September-October) are ideal because of the pleasant weather and smaller crowds, avoiding the summer heat.

Always check the events calendar on the website for temporary exhibitions.
