In the small exhibition hall, namely in the left side chapel, some 50 sacred objects are on display: paintings, statues, chalices, missals, and reliquaries donated mostly by the people of Collina d'Oro. Of particular interest are a 17th-century painting attributed to the Lombard school depicting the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple, a Crucifix and a polychrome terracotta statue by Domenico Gaggini of Bissone, probably depicting a pregnant Madonna. The church sacristy houses a significant selection of valuable ancient liturgical vestments, mostly relating to the 18th century with the exception of a couple of artifacts that by shape and quality of fabric almost certainly date to the second half of the 17th century.
