Features some really cool exhibitions which alternate every few months. It also offers one of the best views of the downtown area from the top of it's towers.

This Palazzo has an small but amazing collection of antique art ... we were pleasantly enraptured by its ground floor collection. The palazzo itself is spectacular. Highly recommend :)
