Palazzo Barbò, Renaissance palace in Torre Pallavicina, Italy

The palace features a quadrangular tower with brick masonry and multiple buildings connected through architectural elements from different historical periods.

Built in the 15th century by Tristano Sforza as a fortified residence, the tower passed to Galeazzo I Pallavicino through his marriage to Elisabetta Sforza.

The Sala dei Giganti contains mythological scenes painted by Bernardino Campi around 1557, representing the artistic preferences of Renaissance nobility.

The palace functions as an events venue while maintaining its historical integrity through careful preservation of original frescoes and architectural features.

The internal decorations include a documented commission from 1575 that details specific requirements for frescoes and improvements to the estate.
