Palazzo Ghisilardi Fava
This Renaissance palace on Via Manzoni is the home of the Museo Civico Medievale. See its exterior as part of a central walk, or enter the museum for the fuller palace setting and collections.
The palace gives a building-sized setting to the medieval museum's objects. Its Renaissance frontage marks Via Manzoni, while a courtyard and older tower recall the layers beneath the later façade. Visit for the architecture together with the collections rather than expecting unrestricted access to every historic room.
