Palazzo Branda Castiglioni, Renaissance house museum in Castiglione Olona, Italy.

The palace features two main wings connected by a structure housing the Chapel of San Martino and a Renaissance loggia with frescoed walls.

Cardinal Branda Castiglioni initiated the transformation of this 14th-century residence into a Renaissance palace during the first decades of the 15th century.

The palace contains frescoes by Masolino da Panicale and Lorenzo di Pietro, representing the artistic achievements of Italian Renaissance painters.

The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Saturday between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM, then from 3:00 PM until 6:00 PM.

The Hungarian Landscape fresco by Masolino commemorates Veszprém, where Cardinal Branda held the title of Count during his diplomatic career.
