The Diocesan Museum, also known as Mu.di., is situated in the historic setting of the 16th-century Archbishop's Seminary in the Old Town of Taranto. This location not only provides a unique backdrop for the museum's exhibits but also adds to the overall cultural and historical experience of visiting the museum.
The Diocesan Museum is spread across four floors, each offering a unique experience. The basement houses remains of an ancient Iapygian village, providing a glimpse into the region's past. The ground floor features a 100-seat auditorium and a multifunctional room that serves as a restoration workshop, multimedia library, and meeting room. The first and second floors are dedicated to thematic sections such as Liturgical, Christological, Marian, Saints, Religious Orders and Confraternities, Cathedral and Archbishops, offering a comprehensive view of the religious and cultural history of the area.
The Diocesan Museum's exhibition boasts over 300 works that cover a time span from the 7th to the 20th century. These include sacred furnishings, relics, paintings, and sculptures of exceptional cultural value. Many of these artifacts come from churches that are no longer open for worship, or from the "Treasure of San Cataldo" and the assets of the archdiocese, providing a unique insight into the religious and cultural history of the region.
