Palazzo Visconti, Mannerist town hall in Brignano Gera d'Adda, Italy

The Palazzo Visconti features a grand entrance leading to a spacious courtyard with square columns and frescoed areas created by Meda in 1675.

During 1186, Emperor Frederick I of Swabia transferred the fiefdom of Brignano, including the palazzo, to the Visconti family of Milan alongside other Gera d'Adda estates.

The interior walls display artistic representations of Hercules and classical statues symbolizing Nobility, Intelligence, and Generosity throughout the municipal chambers.

The municipal offices inside Palazzo Visconti remain open for administrative services during regular business hours, with guided tours available through Pro Loco organization.

Francesco Bernardino Visconti, connected to this palazzo, inspired the character of Innominato in Alessandro Manzoni's literary masterpiece 'I Promessi Sposi'.
