Dedicated to the Irish Saint Columba, who contributed to the spread of Christianity in Europe, the museum displays historical, artistic and archaeological exhibits; some of them date back to the Roman age, and can therefore be connected to the ancient inhabitants of the surrounding area, while some date back to the 16th century and help follow the development of the benedictine complex and its different parts, including the basilica.
