Renaissance Palace, now the seat of the Prefecture. The facade consists of a portico of six arches supported by massive pillars and a top floor with five windows crowned by coats of arms, festoons and putti. The right side shows the bow end of the porch in Gothic style and, upstairs, two large windows, similar to the front but no crown. Inside, the fireplace in the waiting room is a work by Frederico Brandani and depicts a chariot race around the Roveresche Walls. The other halls are decorated with arabesques, while the dressing room bathroom is decorated with polychrome stucco. Among the notable works, a "Assumption among Saints", and in the left transept a "Crucifixion with Saints", by Giovanni Giacomo Pandolfi (seventeenth century).
