Funeral Chapell

Gais has recently been enriched with a historical jewel-

culturally. After years of preparatory work, the

mortuary skin, the so-called "ossarium", has been transformed into

in a small museum and made available to the public.

The centrepiece of the museum is a cycle of frescoes from the period

late-Gothic with a Universal Judgment unique in its

gender and, next to it, the works on the redemption of

poor souls, a kind of catechism for believers

who at the time could not read. In addition,

admire the priestly vestments of Castelbadia (Miscellaneous

precious casulas) in a glass case and St. Constantine II

(a complete skeleton) in a reliquary.
