Since 1834, at the time of the donation, the two collections were merged at the current location. Expanded by progressive acquisitions and donations, the museum route extends along twenty-two rooms where artistic and pictorial works belonging to a historical period between the 15th and 20th centuries are preserved. There are paintings, relics, tapestries, and testimonies documenting the history of the city of Parma and the Stuard family, along with medieval archaeological finds uncovered during the restoration work of the building.
The collection includes over three hundred pictorial and graphic works, a considerable number of furnishings from the 17th to the 19th century, and some art and craft objects. The Tuscan school from the 14th to the 15th century is represented by works of Paolo di Giovanni Fei and Giovanni d’Ambrogio; notable are the panels by Nicolò di Tommaso, the Master of Mercy, and Bicci di Lorenzo. A panel depicting Christ Carrying the Cross is attributed to the circle of Paolo Uccello. Among the most interesting works is a pen drawing of a greyhound, possibly made by Parmigianino for Fontanellato.
Other paintings by Lavinia Fontana, Orazio Samacchini, Sisto Badalocchio, Giovanni Lanfranco, Guido Reni, Guercino, Giuseppe Baldrighi, and Pietro Melchiorre Ferrari illustrate the Emilian pictorial tradition, while a series of canvases by Jacopo Palma the Younger, Sebastiano Ricci, and Francesco Fontebasso represent the Venetian realm. Among foreigners are Brueghel, Zurbaran, and Zoffany.
Following the establishment of the museum, acquisitions include two still lifes by Grechetto, a landscape by Bellotto, Ecce Homo by Guercino, the Virgin by Schedoni, as well as the 19th-century section featuring paintings by Carmignani, Pasini, Affanni, Baratta, Ximenes, and De Stroebel.
