Museo Diocesano di Arte Sacra
About This Museum
Tucked away in the heart of Pordenone, the Museo Diocesano di Arte Sacra feels like a quiet guardian of local history. It was established to preserve the sacred artworks from churches and monasteries across the diocese that were no longer in active use. Stepping inside, you leave the modern city behind and enter a serene, contemplative space. The collection tells a profound story of regional faith and artistry through the centuries.
Collection Highlights
Don't miss the delicate 15th-century wooden Madonna, her paint still vibrant, or the intricate silver processional crosses that once led religious parades. A series of illuminated choir books, with their stunningly detailed miniatures, are also a highlight.
Visitor Information
It's located on Via Revedole, just a short stroll from the Duomo. The atmosphere is wonderfully peaceful and rarely crowded, making it a perfect spot for a reflective half-hour visit.
Architecture & Building
Housed within the historic Bishop's Palace, the museum blends seamlessly into Pordenone's old town with its classic Italian ecclesiastical architecture—think sturdy stone walls and arched windows.
