Palazzo Rocca, Palace and museum in Chiavari, Italy.
The palace features a grand facade with Baroque architectural elements, including ornate windows and decorative stonework across its three-story structure.
Construction began in 1629 when the Marchesi Costaguta family commissioned architect Bartolomeo Bianco to design their residence, which was completed in 1635.
The civic gallery exhibits paintings from Genoese, Italian, Spanish, and Flemish schools, including works by Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione and Jan Roos.
The museum complex includes an archaeological section on the ground floor, displaying artifacts from the pre-Roman necropolis discovered in Chiavari.
The surrounding botanical park spans 21,000 square meters and contains a Neoclassical temple, grottos, waterfalls, and diverse plant species from around the world.
