Palazzo della Corgna

The sixteenth-century Palazzo della Corgna, also known as Palazzo Ducale, in Castiglione del Lago is a gorgeous imposing building, built on the remains of the ancient Palazzo Baglioni in 1550, in order to please the governor of the town, Ascanio della Corgna.

The Palazzo develops itself into four floors: the basement with the kitchens, a low ground floor, a piano nobile and a mezzanine (used by the servitude). The flight used to access the low ground floor from the mezzanine has been built at the beginning of 1900.

Inside you will admire the numerous rooms all amazingly frescoed.

The frescos have been attributed to:

• for the main entrance, the first hall "degli Dei" and "Sala della caduta di Fetonte, Sala di Plutone and Proserpina" to Niccolo Circignani, known as Pomarancio;
• the hall of Eneide to Circignani, but finished by Pandolfi; the Hall of Annibale and the Hall of Cesare to unknown, but brilliant painters;
• The Palazzo that today hosts the town hall of Castiglione del Lago, has been recently renewed on both external and internal sides.

You will pay a small fee to visit the Palazzo, but it will be valid for both Palazzo and Rocca del Leone, as well as other sites of the monumental circuit.
