Museo Agostino Pepoli

The Museo Agostino Pepoli occupies a former 14th-century Carmelite monastery next to the Basilica Maria Santissima Annunziata, featuring Renaissance-style cloisters with double loggias.

Count Agostino Pepoli established the museum in 1908 by donating his extensive art collection to Trapani, leading to its designation as a national museum after World War II.

The museum exhibits showcase regional artistry through coral works, including chalices, monstrances, crucifixes, and jewels that belonged to Sicilian aristocratic residences.

Visitors can access five main collection sections displaying marble works, paintings, industrial arts, Renaissance sculptures, and Risorgimento memorabilia throughout the building.

The museum houses Titian's Saint Francis Receiving the Stigmata alongside a Bourbon-era guillotine and the ensign of the Lombardo from Garibaldi's campaign.
