The Bonoris Castle was built between 1891 and 1905 on pre-existing medieval fortress ruins. It is an architectural example of the most important neo-Gothic style of Lombardy. Count Gaetano Bonoris (1861-1923) commissioned the building of the castle for his own house and home. The Municipality of Montichiari acquired it in 1996. The castle is surrounded by a vas tpark and located on the hill of San Pancrazio, scenically overlooking the historic core of the town. The towers and crenellated walls are made with great attention to defensive details: trap doors, retractable gates, moats and drawbridges. The beautiful interior also features rich materials, decorations, frescoes and furnishing. Do not miss the surprise of a secret safe discovered at the death of the Count, who had a wealth of jewels and precious coins.

The museum displays the donation to the Town of Montichiari of an important art collection of the Counts Piero and Luigi Lechi, descendants of the famous Napoleonic generals nd enlightened collectors from Brescia. In May 2005 they decided to link their names to a museum able to preserve and enhance the approximately 350 works of art including paintings, drawings, prints and porcelain which were inherited from their family or acquired in years of antiquarian research. The 14 rooms of the exhibition, full of comprehensive educational equipment, focus on paintings from the Fifteenth to the Eighteenth Century with important works of the Lombard School, with artists such as Alessandro Bonvicino called Moretto and Giacomo Ceruti called Pitocchetto, as well as major episodes of seventeenth-century Roman painting (Gaulli) and Genoa (Magnasco) or Brescia genre painting.
