Museum of Religious Art, Religious art museum in San Gimignano, Italy

The Museum of Religious Art occupies the former Chaplains' dormitory, displaying an extensive collection of paintings, sculptures, textiles, and silver artifacts from local churches.

Established in 1930, the museum gathers religious artworks from the Collegiate Church and surrounding religious buildings, preserving centuries of religious heritage.

The collection includes the Madonna of the Rose by Bartolo di Fredi and a remarkable 15th-century textile piece known as the Paliotto delle Colombe d'Oro.

The museum opens from April to October with extended hours until 7:30 PM on weekdays, while winter schedules run shorter from November to March.

Among the museum's treasures is an early 1400s polychrome wooden statue of Saint Anthony the Abbot created by Francesco da Valdambrino.
