Palazzo Bentivoglio, Renaissance palace in Gualtieri, Italy
The palace's exterior displays a grand facade opening onto Piazza Bentivoglio with two corner towers framing the main structure at the rear.
Cornelio Bentivoglio acquired Gualtieri in 1567 and commissioned architect Giovan Battista Aleotti to construct this noble residence between 1594 and 1600.
The palace houses the Documentary Museum, Antonio Ligabue Museum Foundation, and Umberto Tirelli Donation, featuring collections of art and historical artifacts.
Located 20 kilometers from Reggio Emilia's A1 motorway exit, the palace stands in Piazza Bentivoglio and remains temporarily closed for restoration work.
The building incorporates elements of an ancient castle that controlled waterways, with deep moats and multiple towers surrounding a spacious central courtyard.
