Museo Diocesano
The Museum houses wonderful works of sculpture, precious silverware, rich textile artefacts, ancient printed volumes and ecclesiastical furnishings.
The Otranto Cathedral Museum was established in 1992 by Archbishop Vincenzo Franco to preserve works and liturgical furnishings, mostly from the Cathedral Basilica.
After years of careful and significant restoration work, commissioned by Bishop Donato Negro, the museum has reopened its doors, presenting rich, radically renovated collections. The tour, accessible to people with mobility disabilities, unfolds along a path displaying marvelous stone works of art and precious artifacts, framed by the evocative rooms on the three floors of the building. All the works offer a glimpse into the history of the Church of Otranto. MuDO is located inside Palazzo Lopez, in Piazza Basilica in Otranto.
