About Museo Diocesano Barbastro-Monzón#
Museo Diocesano Barbastro-Monzón is the diocesan museum serving the Roman Catholic Diocese of Barbastro-Monzón, located in the town of Barbastro in Huesca province, Aragon. The institution houses religious art and liturgical objects from churches and parishes across the diocese.
Collections include ecclesiastical paintings, sculptures and devotional objects that represent the artistic and devotional history of the Somontano and surrounding areas. Exhibition aims are preservation, study and display of the diocese’s movable heritage.
The museum’s holdings were formed from episcopal collections and transfers from local churches and parishes, assembled to create a central repository for diocesan art. Over time the museum has been used for conservation and public display of works removed from vulnerable or deconsecrated buildings.
The museum is located in the town of Barbastro, in the Somontano area of Huesca province, northern Aragon.
