Diocesan Museum and Codex of Corigliano-Rossano, Religious art museum in Corigliano-Rossano, Italy.

The Diocesan Museum exhibits religious artifacts, manuscripts, and liturgical objects across multiple exhibition spaces within the Archbishop's former residence.

Archbishop Giovanni Rizzo founded the museum in 1952, initially housing the collection in two restored rooms of the cathedral sacristy.

The museum displays numerous sculptures, paintings, and ecclesiastical objects that demonstrate the evolution of Christian art through different historical periods.

The museum operates from Tuesday to Sunday with seasonal schedules, offering extended hours from July through mid-September and reduced hours during winter months.

The institution preserves the Codex Purpureus Rossanensis, a sixth-century Greek illuminated manuscript recognized by UNESCO in the Memory of the World register.
