Palazzo del Collegio Raffaello, Renaissance palace in Piazza della Repubblica, Urbino, Italy
The Palazzo del Collegio Raffaello exhibits a rectangular courtyard with a ground floor portico and two levels of windows across its structure.
Pope Clement XI commissioned the palace at the start of the 18th century to house the Piarist Fathers, who managed the college until the 19th century.
The palace currently contains the city council chamber, prefecture offices, university departments, and maintains its position as an educational center.
Visitors can access the Sala Raffaello, a hall with 150 seats, by contacting the facility management at phone number 0722 304536.
The palace features the Serpieri Observatory, a small tower on its roof designed for astronomical studies by Father Alessandro Serpieri.
