Museu Parroquial de Castelló d'Empúries: Reviews
Positive experience:
At the basilica of Santa Maria, in Castelló d'Empúries, we found this Parochial Museum known as the Treasure. It exhibits an important collection of goldsmithing and pieces of religious art from different periods. Among its important elements stands out a 16th-century processional cross as well as valuable examples of Gregorian-style books.

Positive experience:
Located inside the Basilica, the museum houses the collection of religious goldsmithing kept by the basilica, a 16th-century processional cross, an image of the Immaculate Virgin from the 17th century, a collection of liturgical clothing from different eras, several copies of Gregorian chant books, an exhibition of paintings, a collection of jugs and amphorae from the 14th and 15th centuries, and a Hebrew funerary slab located at the viewpoint. It is worth a visit.

Fantastic experience:
Located within the Basilica of Santa Maria, it contains several rooms with different objects made of silver and gilded silver, some made of gold, an impressive altarpiece, and a series of paintings representing characters and situations from Christianity. Also, outside there are some of the tombstones from the old Jewish cemetery and others specific to the basilica, a room with a spectacular piece of furniture, and objects made of clay, and ancient stones, capitals, etc. There is also an exhibition of papal garments and another of nativity scenes, which I assume will be displayed at Christmas. For 2.5 euros, you can access these rooms, and it is worth spending the necessary time to enjoy every corner.
