The National Museum of Castello Pandone was founded in December 2012 with the aim of collecting and exhibiting works of art from churches and collections in Molise and thus highlighting the quality of the artistic production and local clients. The castle is at the same time a museum of itself and museum container: from the horses of Count Enrico, frescoed in full size in the sixteenth century, to the collections of the National Museum between the early Christian and modern ages. The museum itinerary is conceived as a timeline which, starting from the pictorial evidence from Santa Maria delle Monache in Isernia, dating back to the 7th century, reaches the beginning of the 20th century with the woodcuts,photographs and watercolors depicting the Molise area of the collection Musa, acquired in February 2013. Works produced in Naples for Molise or by Molise artists trained in Naples in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries have been placed 'in dialogue' with paintings from important state museums such as the National Museum of Capodimonte and the National Museum of San Martino in Naples, the National Gallery of Ancient Art in Palazzo Barberini in Rome , the Royal Palace in Caserta.
