Museo di Santo Stefano, Bologna

The Basilica Santuario di Santo Stefano, the oldest and most attractive of the city's religious sites, also houses a museum containing artifacts from the period 1300-1800, which were obtained from restoration works carried out in the chapel on the same complex. The lovely works include polyptychs, tryptychs and canvasses by Jacopo di Paolo, Lippo di Dalmasio, Simone dei Crocifissi and Alessandro Tiarini. The small museum, divided into two rooms, Cappella della Benda and the old Sala Capitolare has also put on display the beautiful reliquaries of San Floriano from the 1300s and San Petronio built by Jacop Rosetto in 1380.
