Discover the history and art preserved within the parish church of Moltrasio, and visit the small parish museum of sacred art and furnishings.
Church of San Martino and the small museum of sacred art and furnishings
The history of the parish church, dedicated to Saints Martin and Agatha, is closely intertwined with that of the village of Moltrasio. As the center of community life, it underwent several transformations over the centuries, including a major expansion in 1935, carried out alongside the creation of Piazza San Martino and the current Via Roma.
Inside, it preserves precious artworks, such as the 1520 tempera by De Magistri depicting the Crucifixion and the large 1507 altarpiece by De Donati, as well as a small parish museum. Established thanks to the Confraternity of the Blessed Sacrament (Confratelli del SS. Sacramento) and several parishioners, the room displays numerous sacred furnishings acquired through donations or purchases, dating from the 16th to the 20th century. Notable examples include a Roman Missal from 1668 and 17th- and 18th-century chasubles of Spanish and Italian craftsmanship, which are still worn during celebrations today.
An initiative curated by the Ecomuseum in collaboration with the Parish of San Martino.
