The Civic Museum of Argenta was housed in 1973 in the former church of San Domenico. It is home to the picture gallery with works by Scarsellino, Benvenuto Tisi da Garofalo San Domenico and Francesco Longhi as well as to a large archaeological section dedicated to recent discoveries in and around Argenta. These range from the late Middle Ages around the Pieve di San Giorgio area, to the lakeside settlement of Palmanova and the graffito Renaissance ceramics of the town centre workshops.
