Museo Nazionale di San Matteo

Type: museum / art

Housed in a former Benedictine monastery along the Arno river, this museum holds one of the most significant collections of Pisan and Tuscan medieval art — works by Cimabue, Simone Martini, and Masaccio. The sculpture collection by Giovanni and Nicola Pisano is particularly noteworthy. It receives far fewer tourists than Piazza dei Miracoli, so crowds are rare.
