The Museum and Art Gallery
Purchased by the Cassa di Risparmio di Asti in 1937, three years later it granted the Municipality permission to set up the Museum and Art Gallery there. Owned by the Cassa di Risparmio di Asti Foundation since 2001, it reopened to the public in December 2011, completely refurbished and restored.[2]
