Palazzo Pompei, Renaissance palace in Verona, Italy.

The building exhibits a two-level facade with rustic stone on the ground floor and eight fluted columns framing seven large windows on the upper level.

Michele Sanmicheli designed this palace between 1530 and 1550 for the Lavezola family before the Pompei family acquired it in 1579.

The palace houses the Natural History Museum of Verona, containing sixteen exhibition rooms filled with regional scientific collections and research laboratories.

The Natural History Museum inside Palazzo Pompei opens from Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with closures on Mondays and major holidays.

The palace features an internal symmetrical layout divided into two parts, with a colonnade-surrounded courtyard accessed through an entrance vestibule.
