Admire the precious history and art collections in the former bishopric seat
Image gallery: Castello del Buonconsiglio museum
The Castello del Buonconsiglio in Trento was the residence of the prince-bishops from the second half of the 13th century until the secularisation of the bishopric.
The collections in the museum inside the castle have been set up in 1850 and enriched over time. The medieval and modern art assortments include musical scores of the 15th century, a collection of the musicologist Feininger, a purplish Evangelion and a Gregorian Sacramentary of the 9th century.
Furthermore, the museum also houses a rich collection of paintings, sculptures from the Carolingian period to the Rococo, furnishings, drawings, prints, frescoes and china objects. The numismatic collection, the archaeologic section exhibiting textiles and timber from the Bronze Age, Iron Age, as well as the Romans and the Langobards, and last but not least the Egyptian and Eastern art collection are definitely worth visiting.
