Hôtel de Ferrare, Historical monument in Fontainebleau, France.
The Hotel de Ferrare features a brick and sandstone wall with a massive Tuscan portal displaying Renaissance rustic architectural elements.
Built in the 16th century for a cardinal, this residence later transformed into quarters for the French king's bodyguards and a military district.
The main portal, designed by Italian architect Sebastiano Serlio, demonstrates the Italian Renaissance influence on French architectural heritage.
The building complex is divided between municipal and state ownership, with certain sections open for public viewing.
Following accidental damage to the historic wall in 2001, renovation plans include new lighting to enhance its architectural features.
