This example of 15th-century architecture was built between 1483-1491 by Edigio Montanari. In 1915 the original structure was brought to light by substantial restoration work. They also restored the Torre dei Conoscenti which dates back to the 13th Century. The entrance courtyard is really beautiful. It is surrounded by porticoes with a loggia. At present, the Palazzo Fava Ghisilardi belongs to the city council. It contains the Museo Civico Medievale. The rooms contain collections of musical instruments and western ceramics. The rooms are decorated with some fabulous frescoes by Carracci which show scenes from mythology. Admission: Free.
