The gallery was founded in its own building due to the patronage of the local jurist and collector, Giuseppe Ricci Oddi (1868–1936). The building was constructed in 1931 using designs by Giulio Ulisse Arata on land adjacent to a deconsecrated convent, donated by the commune. The collections have expanded over the decades. The museum has today about 400 works of many local, mostly Italian, and some international painters. [1]
