The Museum is situated inside the Church of Santa Maria del Gesù, built in the mid-15th century and then remodelled at the beginning of the 17th century and in the building next. It contains original works from the church, including a Madonna and Child by Lippo di Benivieni. Other paintings are from local churches, such as the Coronation of the Virgin by Neri di Bicci. The finest works, from the Church of Vico l’Abate, are a frontal altar depicting Saint Michael the Archangel (mid-13th century), attributed to Coppo di Marcovaldo, and a Madonna and Child (1319) by Ambrogio Lorenzetti. The collection also includes 14th-century gold-ground panel paintings, liturgical furnishings and hangings.
