Palazzo Massari, Renaissance palace in Ferrara, Italy
Palazzo Massari stands at the intersection of Via Borso and Corso Porta Mare, featuring a stern late 16th-century facade with large windows and twin pilasters.
Count Onofrio Bevilacqua commissioned architect Alberto Schiatti to construct the palace, which was completed in 1591 as part of the Addizione Erculea development.
The palace houses three museums dedicated to different art periods: Giovanni Boldini Museum, 19th Century Museum, and Modern and Contemporary Art Museum Filippo de Pisis.
The building remains closed for restoration work, but visitors can obtain information at the office located at Corso Porta Mare 9 in Ferrara.
The palace grounds include an 18th-century Coffee House designed by Luigi Cosimo Bertelli and gardens that display outdoor modern sculptures by various artists.
