The Diocesan Museum and the Crypt of San Rufino are located in the historic center of Assisi. The Museum was inaugurated in 1941 in the underground of the cathedral and the Canons' palace. The aim of the Museum is to preserve and enhance the most important works from the cathedral and some neighboring oratories. The museum collection consists of about 300 works displayed in nine sections. Of great interest is certainly the Corridor where archaeological finds from the area are exhibited. The archaeological collection consists mostly of carved capitals and a sarcophagus from the 2nd century AD with the libation ritual. The other rooms feature paintings from the 14th and 15th centuries and banners from the 17th century depicting Saint Francis and Saint Catherine. Among the most famous works is the Martyrdom of Saint Catherine of Alexandria by Orazio Riminaldi, a renowned painter of the Confraternity. The collection was enriched by an important donation from Frederick Mason Perkins, an art historian who lived in Assisi for some time. The crypt of San Rufino is a jewel of Romanesque architecture that still preserves its original decorations. In particular, we find the four symbols of the evangelists: the angel of Saint Matthew, the lion of Saint Mark, the eagle of Saint John, and the bull of Saint Luke.
