The Municipal Art Gallery of Assisi is located in the Vallemani Palace in the historic center of the city. The Pinacoteca is housed in the rooms of the noble floor of the baroque residence which presents the vaults frescoed in the seventeenth century by Tuscan and Umbrian painters in perfect condition. The Pinacoteca houses a large number of paintings on wood and canvas, as well as detached frescoes from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance from religious and civil buildings in the area. The collection was brought together in one place following the unification of Italy to avoid the dispersion of the artistic heritage of the city. One of the most famous works exhibited in the Pinacoteca is certainly "the Majesty" attributed to Giotto. Other paintings of great interest belong to Pietro Perugino, Nicolà di Liberatore, Ottaviano Nelli and Puccio Capanna. The most important aspect of this museum collection is the reconstruction of the environment of origin and the chronology of the works, to better guide the viewer during the visit. On the ground floor of the Pinacoteca it is possible to visit a multimedia room that documents the history and urban development of the city of Assisi. The Pinacoteca is now home to temporary exhibitions and cultural events.
