The construction of the Old Parish began in 1452. Altar within a gilded wooden tabernacle was placed the Madonna Enthroned by Mark di Bonaventura, who was replaced in 1486 with the Altarpiece of St. Giuliano di Bartolomeo della Gatta, the two works are now in the Collegiate. At the close of the fifteenth Luca Signorelli painted in fresco The Lamentation over the Dead Christ in the Sacrament Chapel, where also the stone baptismal font, made by Teodora Visconti to the middle of the fifteenth century, polychrome glazed terracotta relief representing the Baptism of Christ scope Robbia.

The route is entirely focused on museological highlights of the liturgical year: it will then begin with the Mystery of Salvation, then continue with the Incarnation of the Passion, the Paschal Mystery and ends with Mary Icon of the Church Triumphant. We therefore propose several levels of interpretation of the same work: art history and iconography, theological, liturgical and notes on popular religiosity. In this way the visitor will be informed on the use of each object and references to the doctrine of the church that it contains. Within the Parish will be relocated from the original works, in order to restore historical unity that over the centuries has been lost, as it has restored the function of ecclesiastical architectural pieces and decorative.

They also exhibited paintings, jewelry, sculpture, furniture and fabric from all sources, previously unseen problems for conservation or safety.
