Among the precious liturgical furnishings here on display, praiseworthy are a thurible and a navicula, of engraved and embossed silver, dating back to the early 16th century.

These precious liturgical furnishings are ascribed to Antonio Fabbri (1450-1529), a famous San Marino goldsmith, who was also official engraver of the Holy See from 1476 to 1522 and Ambassador of the Republic of San Marino to Pope Leo X. He established friendly relations with Benvenuto Cellini and Raphael, who mentioned him in his will as a token of his high esteem. 

Among the paintings collected, particularly remarkable is the 25th century fresco attributed to Antonio Alberti from Ferrara and reproducing the Adoration of the Three Kings.

This extremely elegant fresco of the late Gothic period is one of the Republic’s most ancient works of art. Produced between 1430 and 1437 for the “Three Kings Altar” in the adjacent Franciscan church and found during the restoration works of 1960, the fresco formed part of a larger decorative painting which completely got lost during the 17th century restructuring.
