Palais Sorbello, Baroque palace museum in Perugia, Italy.

The three-story Palazzo Sorbello features decorated vaulted ceilings, period furniture, paintings, porcelain collections, and a panoramic terrace overlooking Perugia's landscape.

The palace, constructed in the late 16th century on Etruscan walls, belonged to the Montemelini family before being acquired by the Bourbon di Sorbello family in 1780.

The museum exhibits over 500 lace pieces collected by Romeyne Robert, who established a local embroidery workshop for traditional Umbrian linen techniques.

The ground floor and noble floor of Palazzo Sorbello are open to visitors, displaying 18th-century furnishings and a library containing 26,000 volumes.

The palace entrance features a wooden floor system designed to reduce noise from passing carriages, representing a rare architectural element in Italian buildings.
