The Museum houses an important picture gallery, with the surviving panels of three retables (painted multi-panel altarpieces): the retable of Saint Martin, the retable of the Holy Christ and the retable of the Councillors of Oristano.

Our visit to the Temple Wine Bar during our visit to Oristano turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. This local spot was cozy and friendly, with a wide selection of wines and mixed drinks. The owner personally recommended two local wines that we ended up liking so much that we took a few bottles with us. The background music at least during our visit was American country, which was unique from our time touring Italy. We really enjoyed our visit, the friendliness of the owner and his staff, and of course the wines. Definitely recommend you stop in if you're in Oristano.
