The Civic Museum is housed on the first floor (called the “noble floor”) of the Palazzo dei Principi in Correggio.
Among the most important works in the collection we should mention: il Redentore by Andrea Mantegna, an absolute masterpiece dated 1493, the three small works attributed to Antonio Allegri known as Correggio (Volto di Cristo, Pietà and a double-sided drawing), the nine Flemish tapestries woven in Brussels in the workshop of Cornelius Mattens, probably dating back to the last fifteen years of the 16th century and probably purchased by Camillo da Correggio in Anversa. Lastly, the coin collection of the Correggio mint and the fortepiano owned by Bonifazio Asioli.
