The Museo del Tesoro, located inside the Cattedrale di San Lorenzo in Genoa, offers visitors an extraordinary opportunity to connect with some of Christianity’s most treasured relics. This small but profoundly impactful museum is a must-see for those interested in history, faith, and art.

The collection features several sacred and historically significant artifacts, including: • The Holy Chalice: Known as the Sacro Catino, this green glass vessel is believed by some to be the Holy Grail, the cup used by Jesus Christ at the Last Supper. Its intricate medieval casing adds to its allure and spiritual significance. • Relic of the True Cross: A fragment of the cross on which Jesus was crucified, this relic is a deeply moving reminder of the Passion of Christ. • The Silver Plate of St. John the Baptist: Said to have held the head of St. John the Baptist after his beheading, this artifact was reputedly gifted to King Harold before finding its way to Genoa. Its historical and religious significance makes it one of the museum’s most...

Il Museo del Tesoro di Genova è un gioiello culturale che offre un'immersione straordinaria nella storia, nell'arte e nella spiritualità. Situato all'interno dell'iconica Cattedrale di San Lorenzo, il museo racchiude una collezione eccezionale di opere sacre, reliquie e tesori preziosi che riflettono la devozione religiosa e l'arte dei secoli passati.

L'atmosfera del Museo del Tesoro cattura l'attenzione dei visitatori fin dal primo momento. L'edificio della cattedrale, con la sua architettura gotica e le sue maestose colonne, crea un contesto suggestivo che si fonde armoniosamente con la collezione di oggetti sacri e preziosi. Le sale espositive sono curate con attenzione ai dettagli, offrendo uno spazio intimo per esplorare i tesori esposti.

La collezione del museo è un tesoro di gioielli, reliquie, paramenti sacri, oggetti liturgici e opere d'arte che risalgono a diversi periodi storici. Tra le opere più significative vi sono reliquiari elaboratamente decorati, croci preziose, candelabri scolpiti e preziosi manufatti in argento e oro. Ogni pezzo racconta la storia della cattedrale e della devozione dei fedeli, offrendo uno sguardo ravvicinato alle opere d'arte sacra e alla maestria artigianale.

Ogni oggetto è presentato con informazioni storiche, religiose e artistiche che permettono ai visitatori di comprendere appieno il valore e l'importanza di ciascuna opera. Questo approfondimento arricchisce l'esperienza dei visitatori, offrendo un'opportunità di connettersi con il significato spirituale e culturale di ogni tesoro esposto.

Un aspetto notevole del museo è la sua prossimità alla cattedrale stessa.

Questo contribuisce a una comprensione più profonda della devozione e dell'importanza storica della cattedrale.

A wonderful little gem. The cathedral’s treasury museum is a small but interesting museum, inside the San Lorenzo cathedral of Genova. The museum holds some of the cathedral’s oldest and most beloved and interesting treasures, including the ‘holy grail’, the plate of Saint John the Baptist’s severed head, the latter’s reliquary and several other reliquaries and statues. The museum has a serene and intimate atmosphere because of the masterful architecture of Franco Albini. It is worth a visit, especially in combination with the nearby diocesan museum for which you can also...

Interesting underground museum with many gold, silver and gems artifact of religious significance. It's located in an underground part of the church which really adds to the experience. The size of the museum is rather small but they give out a pamphlet that is interesting and adds depth to the experience
