Nice small exhibition space with some beautiful medieval and ancient roman artifacts.

Raffaele Ambrosano (11/25/2017)

source Diocese of Reggio Emilia The itinerary proposed by the Diocesan Museum acquires a peculiarly ecclesiological meaning as an expression of fidelity to the ecclesiological instances of Vatican II. The works on display, exhibited according to a criterion of "production bodies", aim to "narrate" the history of the Church in Reggio Emilia through the ecclesiastical structures that have operated here by announcing the Gospel of Christ, celebrating his first advent, living the charity, in the eschatological expectation of His last coming. This highlights the ecclesial realities that have fostered the roots and growth of faith over time: the cathedral as a sign of unity around the Bishop; the parishes, deputies for the administration of the sacraments; monasteries, reception, work and culture centers. In this way it is possible to retrace the local Christian history by letting yourself be guided by the artistic works that are "epiphany" of the Good News announced by the Church.

GIORGIO BIGI (01/25/2018)

Some pieces of fine workmanship from both Reggio and the province make it very interesting. The floor of the Roman Domus recently found under the apse of the cathedral, shows off in the last room is simply beautiful. In the second room the capitals of the Matildic age are very interesting, a true example of ability to sculpt the stone. In the initial room, in addition to the ticket office (free admission, if you want to make an offer) there is a fresco and a wooden crucifix of fine workmanship from the Middle Ages.
