Palazzo Salina Amorini Bolognini
A Renaissance palace on Piazza Santo Stefano, best seen from the public square for its expressive terracotta heads and portico. Treat this as an exterior architectural stop.
The faces set into the façade make this palace more than a backdrop to the piazza. Look across the front to see how the sculpted heads vary, then compare the palace's portico with the arcades on the opposite side of Piazza Santo Stefano. The visible frontage tells the story without requiring an interior tour.
What to look for
Terracotta busts sit in niches across the palace façade.
A Renaissance portico faces Piazza Santo Stefano.
The right side of the façade includes later sculptural work.
Useful to know
View the full façade from across Piazza Santo Stefano before moving under its portico.
Combine this exterior stop with the square and the Santo Stefano complex.
