The museum, opened in 1999, is housed in the premises adjacent to the Church of Sts. George and Catherine. Inside one can admire paintings, statues, silverware and vestments that formed the liturgical trousseau of the old church on Via Manno destroyed by the bombing in 1943, saved and collected by the brethren of the Archconfraternity. The objects visible today chronologically cover a span from the 17th to the 20th century. Stylistically they cannot be grouped into the same current or geographical area, but the variety testifies to the countless cultural and economic contacts of the Genoese community in Cagliari, both on and off the island. Noteworthy are: sacred subjects by Giovanni Bernardino Azzolino and Gioacchino Assereto; the processional case of St. Catherine of Alexandria; the wooden group made by Giuseppe Anfosso; the silver and gilded copper monstrance from the late 1700s; the chasuble with the painted effigy of SS. MM. George and Catherine. The Archconfraternity, the oldest in Sardinia, also keeps a valuable archive where the history of the sodality since 1599 is recorded. Among other documents is the statute written in vernacular Italian in 1596.
