Casa di Rigoletto, Medieval residential building in Piazza Sordello, Mantua, Italy.

The two-story structure features a Renaissance loggia, two internal courtyards, and a garden where a bronze statue of Rigoletto stands.

Dating from the 12th century, the building underwent renovations in the 15th century and served as residence for Cathedral Canons over many generations.

The house gained recognition through its connection to Giuseppe Verdi's 1851 opera Rigoletto, which tells the story of a court jester in Mantua.

Located behind Mantua Cathedral, the building now functions as the tourist information office for the Province of Mantua.

The upper loggia, known as Gilda's balcony, references the tragic tale of Rigoletto's daughter in Verdi's opera.
