Über das Museum

This is the Museum of rescued art. Art found again. Art born of miracles. Many of the masterpieces housed here had disappeared and have only been rediscovered since the end of the 19th century up to the present day. There are some surprising treasures in the rooms of the museum. With some extraordinary little stories to tell. The architect and sculptor Giovanni di Nicola, from Pisa, more commonly known as Giovanni Pisano, the Sienese sculptor Gano di Fazio, the goldsmith Andrea Pisano, the painters Ambrogio Lorenzetti and Stefano di Giovanni, known as Sassetta, are the actors on the stage of this museum.

Here we can retrace the exceptional art history of Massa Marittima, a journey that starts in the 12th century building sites of one of Italy’s most beautiful cathedrals, the great Church of Saint Cerbonius, and continues into the 1400s and 1500s. These are the centuries of medieval art, Romanesque and Gothic.
