Palazzo d'Arco, Neoclassical palace museum in Mantua, Italy
The Palazzo d'Arco presents a symmetrical Neoclassical facade designed by architect Antonio Colonna, featuring the coat of arms of both d'Arco and Chieppio families.
Count Giovanni Battista Gherardo d'Arco commissioned the renovation of the palace in 1783, transforming the existing structure into its current Neoclassical form.
The palace museum displays an extensive collection of period furniture, ceramics, paintings, and musical instruments gathered by generations of the d'Arco family.
Visitors can explore the palace museum from Tuesday through Sunday, with opening hours from 9:30 AM to 1:00 PM and 2:30 PM to 6:00 PM.
The Sala dello Zodiaco contains frescoes by Giovanni Maria Falconetto from 1520, depicting astrological signs across the ceiling and walls.
