Palazzo Coronini Cronberg, Historical park museum in Gorizia, Italy
Palazzo Coronini Cronberg is a palace with fifteen exhibition rooms set in a late 16th-century building surrounded by an English-style garden. The entire property combines a grand residence with carefully landscaped grounds that visitors can explore.
A secretary of the Provincial States built this residence between 1593 and 1598 during the time of Habsburg rule in the region. Over the centuries, the palace passed through the hands of several important families who continued to develop and maintain it.
The palace displays art and personal items collected over centuries that show how a wealthy family lived and what they valued. Walking through the rooms, you see pieces from different eras mixed together, revealing tastes and interests across generations.
The palace is located in central Gorizia and remains open year-round with full wheelchair accessibility for all visitors. Plan to spend time both indoors viewing the exhibition rooms and outdoors exploring the garden grounds.
The last French Bourbon king spent his final days at this residence and died here in 1836 from cholera during his exile. This historical moment connects the palace to wider European royal history in an unexpected way.
