Paliano. Petrarch Palace

The Petrarch Palace in Paliano was built in 1600 by the Petrarch family that, in 1755 brought to Paliano the Order of the Passionists.

In fact, in 1767 the palace housed the founder of the order, St. Paul of the Cross.

In the palace there is a private chapel and numerous frescoed rooms by Tommaso Conca, also author of the Martyrdom of St. Andrew in the church of that name.
