The first floor of the building houses the Museo Civico-Diocesano, which has works from Norcia and its surrounding area between the 13th and 18th Century. Artists represented here include Giovanni della Robbia, Nicola da Siena and Antonio da Faenza. Also here is a wooden sculpture of the Deposition, from the 13th Century, and an altar piece by Jacopo Siculo.
