Museo di San Giovanni in Monte

Where Piazza San Giovanni in Monte, 1/2, Bologna

The small museum is housed in the sacristy of the parish church of San Giovanni in Monte Oliveto and adjoining the parish office. Collect important furniture and sacred vessels, reliquaries, ivory, glass and ceramic artifacts, paintings and sculptures, including a period between the fourteenth and eighteenth centuries. Stand for the precious relics of St. Cecilia (silver filigree, of the fourteenth century.), St. John (copper gilt, 1413), of St. Mary of Egypt (copper and brass plated, 1444) and San Petronio (in chased silver, which encloses the arm of the Holy Bishop of Bologna). They also kept a small torn fresco attributed to Vitale da Bologna, two small paintings on copper probably made by Agostino Carracci, a small manger of the Bat (XVII century.) And the two terracotta sculptures depicting St. Joseph and the Child Jesus performed by Ubaldo Gandolfi. In conclusion we report, for their interest, the hemispherical cup Byzantine of the twelfth century, the parish Pallione two Agnus Dei of the Popes Boniface IX (1389-1404) and Gregory XII (1406-1409) and small wax blessed medals, including the oldest ever known.
