The Sixteenth-Seventeenth centuries Room preserves paintings and canvases of painters such as Maso da San Friano, Carlo Dolci, Livio Mehus and others.

The Room of Treasure houses - in its showcases - monstrances, chalices and sacred silverware from the Fourteenth to the Nineteenth centuries. Among those on display, the following works are particularly important: the "Shrine Bust of St. Anne" by Antonio di Salvi (1490) and a very refined altar "Crucifix", possibly a late work of Giambologna (1529 - 1608) or executed by a pupil of the sculptor on his model.

The Antiquarium - that one may reach through a corridor branching off from the sepulchral chapel of Migliorati - houses finds recovered during the excavations carried out in 1970's around the church and the Bishop's Palace. The finds include earthenware plates, fragments of mosaic flooring of the ancient Parish Church and architectural fragments.

The Vaults - a wide space covered by cross vaults (beginning of the Fourteenth century) beneath the Chapels of the Cathedral used from the Fourteenth to the Eighteenth centuries for family burials, of which one still preserves numerous stone coats of arms and paintings - preserve also frescoes: e.g. a remarkable "Pietà" by Bonaccorso di Cino (approximately mid Fourteenth century). Next to the central bay, there is the altar consisting of 4 marble reliefs by Niccolò di Cecco del Mercia (1385) with "Stories of the Virgin".
