Museo di Arte Sacra di Buriano

Museums and libraries | Castiglione della Pescaia
This museum, inaugurated in 2017, offers a privileged look at sacred works from the churches of the parish of Buriano. The precious exhibits include ex-voto paintings of the 18th century which commemorate the miracles of San Guglielmo, patron of the municipality, and Beata Libertesca. One of the highlights is a silver reliquary of the 18th century, containing a bone of San Guglielmo, in the shape of an arm. The collection also includes articles of sacred jewellery, an 18th century painting of the Eucharist and sacred vestments such as the 17thcentury damask silk liturgical cope. The 12th century Rocca is just a short distance away, with imposing limestone ruins, originally a two-storey polygonal fortified complex strategically positioned on high ground.
