The Diocesan Museum of Sacred Art is located on the first floor of the Episcopal Seminary Palace in Lamezia Terme, and was opened in 1998. It'structured into seven sections, in which are exhibited wooden sculptures dating back to the sixteenth century, paintings of the Roglianese school, as well as liturgical vestments and sacred vessels in silver mostly from southern and local shops, made over a period of time ranging from the fifteenth to the twentieth century. Some important examples come from the ancient diocese of Nicastro and Martirano.
