The Civic Museum of Argenta is housed inside the church of San Domenico.

The building is a fine example of fifteenth-century architecture with exposed bricks inspired by Rossetti's models and still retains the beautiful bell tower with spire in polychrome terracotta tiles.

The church was owned by the Confraternity of the Battuti Bianchi who in 1495 donated it to the Dominican friars who had just settled in the city.

The interior of the building has a single nave, flanked by six raised niches on each side, which in ancient times were each equipped with an altar, frescoes and stucco decorations which unfortunately have been lost due to the state of abandonment in which the building has been found several times throughout its history in addition to the damage caused by the Second World War.

In 1973 the Municipality of Argenta stipulated an agreement with the Archbishop's Curia of Ravenna to be able to use the structure for public use, with the aim of collecting all those pictorial works that were saved from the bombing of April 1945 and making them accessible to the public.
