The gallery exhibits 13 and 15C paintings by Fabriano, but you can also see two beautiful wood cycles from the second half of the 14C depicting Adoration of the wise men and the Mystery, in addition to a tapestry collection.
The establishment of the Civic Art Gallery of Fabriano dates back to 1862, when the city acquired a first group of works, previously owned the assets of ecclesiastical bodies, expropriated following the birth of the unified Italian state. The first construction exhibition was housed in several rooms of the same town hall, the old Palace Chiavelli, and already included major pictorial artists Fabriano the centuries XIV and XV, as the Triptych of Allegretto Nuzi, and the Dormition of the Virgin of Antonio da Fabriano . Between 1911 and 1913, there were substantial increases thanks to the decision of the Cathedral Chapter of San Venancio make you join an outstanding group of works he owned, including the series of Flemish tapestries of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, which necessitated a new and more appropriate venue, located in several rooms of the Bishop's Palace. In 1986 the Art Gallery was named after Bruno Molajoli, historian Fabriano and general manager of fine arts in the sixties, died the previous year. Since 1994, acquired in the meantime groups of painted wood sculpture of the fourteenth century, the civic collection of works of art finds its ultimate and present location inside the old Hospital of Santa Maria of the Good Jesus.
