Palazzo Bracci Pagani, Renaissance palace and natural sciences museum in Fano, Italy
The building combines two distinct structures facing Via Arco d'Augusto and Corso Matteotti, featuring exposed brick walls and decorative architectural elements from different periods.
Diana Bracci, a noblewoman with connections to Napoleon Bonaparte, married Arnolfo Pagani in 1914 and later donated the palace to establish an agricultural school.
The museum system includes natural science collections, contemporary art in the Diana Art Gallery, and a dedicated space commemorating actor Ruggero Ruggeri.
The museum operates on Saturdays from 15:00 to 17:00 and Sundays from 9:30 to 11:30 during winter, with different hours in July and August.
The internal Nespolo Court serves as a venue for cultural events and contains exhibits of minerals, coins from the Fano Mint, and ethnographic artifacts.
