Palazzo Malfatti

Palazzo Malfatti is a medieval palace in Massa Marittima that spans two floors and contains residential units of varying sizes. Each apartment has its own entrance, an equipped kitchen, and living spaces with period fireplaces.

This palace was constructed around 1200 and reflects medieval Tuscan design principles. A major restoration in 2011 updated the infrastructure while keeping its historic architectural character intact.

The palace displays artworks by local creators throughout its shared spaces, bringing contemporary perspectives into the medieval setting. Visitors walking through the common areas and historic courtyard can see how these pieces interact with the ancient stone walls.

The apartments are functionally equipped and each has its own entrance at street level. Bedding and towels are refreshed weekly, which makes upkeep straightforward for residents.

The building serves as both protected heritage and active residential space, a rare blend where preservation coexists with everyday living. This allows visitors to experience history not just as an artifact but as a lived setting.
