Palazzo Malvezzi Campeggi, Bologna, Renaissance palazzo in central Bologna, Italy.

The palace exhibits three orders of superimposed columns: Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian, with medallions depicting Roman emperors in its courtyard.

Construction of the palace began in 1550 on a previous structure that belonged to Giovanni II Bentivoglio, under architects Andrea and Giacomo Marchesi.

The noble floor, designed in the 18th century, contains frescoes by Carlo Lodi and Antonio Rossi depicting military achievements of the Malvezzi family.

The building currently houses the Faculty of Law of the University of Bologna and stands at Via Zamboni 22, facing the Basilica of San Giacomo Maggiore.

The stucco decorations by Carlo Nessi connect heraldic symbols of Malvezzi and Campeggi families, united through marriage in 1707.
