It is a huge quadrangular building, 40 mt. per side long. It is
a classical example of Renaissance architecture, made of local
stone, with traces of serene stone and terracotta, on two floors.
The windows in the noble floors are arch-shaped, those in the
grounfloor are squared, all surrounded by sandstone.
You can reach through the Palazzo, going through a three-arched
lodge, featuring cross vaults; the courtyard is marked off by a
triple portico, featured by Doric and Ionic order, linked by a
perforated terracotta ledge; there is a well in the middle, having
a terracotta arch from which an interesting perspective can be
seen.
The façades and lodges are decorated by many Commissioners'
sculpted and painted coats of arms.
It was the centre of the general Commissioners for the Tuscan
Romagna and for the civic and criminal lower court; it still has an
architectonic complex made of 'secret' cellars by which you could
go through a spiral staircase (inspired by Leonardo).
It is the centre of Terra del Sole's Pro Loco and of Man and
Ambient Museum.
