Art gallery hosting lots of frescos that were removed from local churches and castles. If you enjoy medieval art and some 20th century art too then this is worth going to for about 30-60 mins. The library with old books is very interesting too

The gallery is presented in two distinct sections.
The first section contains a number of detached frescoes by a variety of Umbrian artists, most of which are in poor condition.
The second section is held in a number of rooms with frescoed ceilings. The frescoes are considerably more interesting than the contemporary art exhibition these rooms contain. I think the contemporary art is also by local artists.

Sehr schöne und interessante Kirche mit der Krypta in der das Grab des hl. Franziskus ist. Der deutsche Bruder führt gut und humorvoll durch die Anlage. Die Führung ist sehr zu empfehlen da dort die Bilder gut erklärt werden und der Tiefe Sinn dahinter theologisch begründet werden.

Molto bella…bellissime tutte le opere esposte,da visitare assolutamente!






The museum is surprisingly great! So much underground in the crypts where St Francis prayed including paintings, roman ruins, religious artifacts, a library of books dating back to the year 984, well worth the 3.50 euro charge and an Assisi card gets 1 euro off.



Some parts of the floor are glass so you can see the ancient structures below. Don't miss the baptismal font that St. Francis was baptized in a child. Lovely church

Assisi non è solo San Francesco e Santa Chiara
La pinacoteca comunale contiene la storia artistica di Assisi ai tempi del suo massimo splendore, dal '200 al '400
L'allestimento è molto ben curato, ci sono molti affreschi staccati, e mi chiedo come mai leggendo le recensioni molti visitatori considerano con sufficienza gli affreschi staccati (c'è anche una Madonna del Perugino !!!)
Inoltre le opere sono state distribuite nelle varie sale seguendo un criterio storico e artistico ed in ogni sala è presente un pannello che racconta il periodo, gli artisti e le opere
Insomma, chi ama l'arte penso debba proprio entrare per una vista (costo biglietto € 3,50)

La visita alla Pinacoteca fa parte del biglietto combinato con cui ho visitato Torre del Popolo e Foro Romano. Si trova in pieno centro e viene ospitata nel Palazzo Vallemani. Al suo interno vi è una ricca collezione di dipinti e affreschi di artisti di scuola giottesca. Merita senz'altro una visita.

Muito simples, mas simpática exposição. Maioritariamente frescos.
A entrada é barata.
Consegui fazer a visita completamente sozinha.

Inaspettato museo sottorraneo ad Assisi.
Tante stanze che si intrecciano in un percorso fatto di passato romano e passato cristiano che si fondono in un museo capace di raccontare due grandi culture. In un unico biglietto con solo un euro in più si può salire sulla torre campanaria da cui si gode una bellissima visuale di Assisi

Una vera e propria sorpresa questo Museo all'interno della Cattedrale di San Rufino ma ancor più i Sottorranei che propongono un interessante viaggio nella storia.
La Cattedrale, la Cripta ed i Sottorranei sono tenuti splendidamente e con una spesa irrisoria di € 3,50 si ha l'opportunità di visitare un patrimonio storico, culturale, religioso di grande spessore. Due ore ben spese in uno dei tesori, forse ancora non adeguatamente valutati, della splendida Assisi.

D'obbligo la visita al museo diocesano che occupa sotterranei e cripta, per scoprire la vita millenaria del luogo, dall'epoca preromana e romana attraverso le varie trasformazioni nei secoli, fino a opere di arte novecentesca ospitate








The Authentic fassade is unique, but when entering I was firstly disappointed. But please go in , the crypte is great, the museum very well done, really a hidden jewel. You can combine the ticket with climbing on the tower, which gives an impressive view of town and the valley, 360 degrees. The church is not too crowded and worth a visit.




This place is the one where St. Francis and St. Chiara were baptized! Beautiful from the outside and it’s interesting to climb the tower and visit the cripta! Only 5€ for both, good experience!

Il Museo diocesano e cripta di San Rufino è un museo situato ad assisi nei sotterranei della cattedrale e del palazzo dei Canonici. Gli ingressi sono all'interno della cattedrale di San rufino (scale attigue alla porta d'accesso della cappella del Santissimo Sacramento) e in piazza San Rufino (ingresso del palazzo dei Canonici).

Il museo si trova nel centro storico di Assisi, a pochi passi dalla Basilica di San Francesco.
Il palazzo fu residenza seicentesca della nobile famiglia Giacobetti, prima, e Vallemani

Assisi un immenso patrimonio che al di la della sua storia religiosa merita senza dubbio di essere visitato....uno dei luoghi più affascinanti questo museo diocesano che ospita le spoglie di S.Rufino...nel visitare il museo si rimane sbalorditi delle innumerevoli opere d'arte....un patrimoni unico di immenso valore.....oggi 22/12/2021 anche delle opere d'aerte contemporanea che personalmente non amo vedere in questi luoghi

Se siete ad Assisi, non potete non visitare il Museo Diocesano e la cripta di San Rufino. Un luogo di grande suggestione dove i resti romani sono la base di un luogo di cristianità. E fino al 27 febbraio 2022 è visitabile anche una suggestiva raccolta di arte contemporanea dedicata ai diritti umani: la Mostra Genesi. Assolutamente da non perdere!

Museo assolutamente da visitare nella chiesa di San Rufino ad Assisi ,oltre ai vari reperti sacri potete ammirare il sarcofago che conteneva le spoglie del Santo, davvero unico!

Personale gentilissimo e molto attivo nell'organizzazione di eventi e guide preparatissimo e pieno di entusiasmo












I loved this place and it’s attached museum! The museum ticket got you into the crypts under the cathedral, and then you take a stairwell up into the cathedral. You can see where they were baptized, an old Roman water storage area, etc. I highly recommend!







































Exquisite church. This is where Sts Francis, Clare and Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows were baptised. The font still stands in the corner. We were blessed to have a nun show us around and had a peek in the sacristy, which is like a little chapel of its own, with altar and relics. Simply beautiful. Very elegant sacred art and architecture.

Great small collection of detached frescoes by important Umbrian artists along with a few other interesting exhibits and artworks.










Great, if not slightly overrated. I guess you have to be a romantic or religious to really appreciate it, neither of which I am! Still, the scenery is marvellous and it's a great day out. I think it's one of the key places that everyone should visit if you go to Italy as it has real historical significance.
