The San Domenico complex is a fundamental part of the historic center of Forlì. The complex is formed by the Church of St. James the Apostle, now used as an auditorium, and the San Domenico Convent, home to the ancient section of the Museo Civico di San Domenico, where art exhibitions, thematic displays, and internationally renowned exhibitions are held. The exhibition path of the museum starts by visiting the right wing, where the oldest works are located, including works by Beato Angelico, Lorenzo di Credi, and Marco Palmezzano. The path continues in the left wing, with works by Carrari, Rondinelli, Longhi, Menzocchi, and many others. The remaining rooms and the gallery exhibit works from the late Mannerism and early 17th-century Emilian and Romagnol art. The last room, featuring the Fiasca con Fiori by the Maestro della Fiasca di Forlì, one of the most significant still lifes in the Italian seventeenth-century art scene, the paintings by Carlo Magini and Nicola Bertuzzi, anticipates the future path of the museum. Finally, the oval room houses "Ebe," a famous work by the sculptor Antonio Canova. The decade-long collaboration with the Fondazione Cassa dei Risparmi di Forlì has allowed the Museo Civico di San Domenico to become the setting for highly relevant temporary exhibitions.
