About

Founded in 1288, the secular charitable order of the Oblates was committed to assisting the ill and infirm. The vast religious and hospital complex, which has simple 15th-century architecture and has handed down the name of the Oblates, now houses the Biblioteca delle Oblate, which has been expanded with the exceptional collection of the historic Biblioteca Comunale Centrale.
