Ecclesiastical Museum of Deliceto
Informations
The Ecclesiastical Museum of Deliceto is now housed inside the seventeenth-century Church of Sant’Anna e Morti, in the former oratory. The church was consecrated in 1685. The temple, built in Baroque style with a single nave, ends with the apse flanked by the sacristy and the oratory. Along the left wall there are some statues of historical and artistic value: San Giuseppe, San Luigi Gonzaga, San Gerardo Maiella, Santa Fausta and San Vincenzo martyrs.
On the entrance to the sacristy it is possible to admire a large canvas of 1685, depicting "Christ in Glory", by the Molise painter Benedetto Brunetti da Oratino. Along the right wall there are: the statues of the Immaculate Conception; the Madonna Addolorata; the painting "... if the grain of wheat does not die ..." (2003) by the German painter Marina Haas; the dead Christ by cabinetmaker Giuseppe Di Francesco da Deliceto (2001) and the large canvas with a fine gilded frame, a copy of the Madonna della Madia, whose original, in Byzantine style, is located in Monopoli.On the high altar stands the wooden statue of Sant'Anna (XVIII century).
Recently the church has been enriched with some valuable stained glass windows by the Grassi brothers from Milan and Giuseppe Zaccheria from Foggia.
