Palazzo Leopardi, Neoclassical palace in Recanati, Italy
The fifteen-axis brick facade of Palazzo Leopardi stretches along the main square, featuring symmetrical windows and a monumental central staircase.
The palace reached its current form in the mid-18th century when Count Vito commissioned Carlo Orazio Leopardi to merge several buildings inhabited since the 13th century.
The first floor houses a library containing 20,000 volumes collected by Monaldo Leopardi and his youngest son Pierfrancesco, where poet Giacomo studied extensively.
Visitors can access the state rooms, the art gallery, the garden, and the private apartments where poet Giacomo Leopardi lived with his siblings.
The eastern wing preserves Giacomo Leopardi's bedroom in its original condition, while the basement houses temporary exhibitions in a former oil mill.
