Museo di Arte Sacra

Housed in the historic Palazzo Canestrari, the Museum of Sacred Art of Force houses since 2007 valuable artifacts from the churches of the place. Among the most important report is the wooden crucifix tunicate of the twelfth century, coming from the demolished church of St. Thaddeus and already deposited at the Church of St. Paul the Apostle; childhood stories of Christ painted on wood by Simone de Magistris (XVI century), the statue of the Madonna and Child made of polychrome stucco hard probably in the workshop of the artist himself. Opera, the latter recently discovered and the subject of a long and delicate restoration, under the repainting, made it possible to find the original colors. In the church of San Francesco in Force will also admire the original drawings, due to the architect Giuseppe Sacconi Marche, author of the altar of the Fatherland in Rome, close to many silvers from the eighteenth century parish church, exposed along with vestments and crosses the century XVI.
