Gais has recently been enriched by a cultural and historical jewel. After years of preparatory work, the old chapel, the so-called “ossuary,” has been transformed into a small museum and opened to the public.


The highlight of the museum is a cycle of late Gothic frescoes featuring a unique depiction of the Last Judgment. Beside it are works illustrating the redemption of poor souls — a kind of catechism for believers who, at the time, were unable to read.


In addition, visitors can admire the priestly vestments from Castelbadia (including several precious chasubles) displayed in a glass case, as well as the complete skeleton of Saint Constantine II preserved in a reliquary.
