Collezioni Comunali d’Arte
Enter the former winter apartment of the Cardinal Legates for paintings, furniture and decorative arts displayed in historic rooms of Palazzo d’Accursio.
This collection is a museum visit with its own galleries, rather than another look at the civic palace exterior. Furnishings, porcelain and textiles sit alongside paintings, and the decorated Urban Hall is a highlight of the rooms themselves. It adds an indoor art stop in the central square with a different focus from climbing the Clock Tower.
What to look for
Look at the coats of arms covering the Urban Hall walls.
Notice furniture, porcelain and textiles in the former Cardinal Legates' rooms.
Compare the historic room settings with the paintings displayed in them.
Useful to know
The art collection is on the second floor of Palazzo d'Accursio, Piazza Maggiore 6; visit its galleries separately from the palace exterior.
