In one of the cloisters of the church, the Museum of sculpture and architecture in Liguria was recently installed. It keeps scattered masterpieces from destroyed buildings. The most important of all is certainly the tomb statue of Marguerite of Brabant, wife of the emperor Henry VII, by Giovanni Pisano.


The Museum is open from Tuesday to Saturday 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Sunday 9 a.m. to 0:30 p.m. Closed on Monday.
