Only opened to the public in the late 1990s this palace has been used by government since it was built by the Duke. It airs on the imitation of the great Versailles of the time period. There are works of art on the walls & ceilings that are masterfully painted. The size of the palace and the grounds are what make this place stand out in such a small town. As this palace continues to be refurbished, its popularity will continue to grow. As in typical Italian building history, the Duke knocked down part of the old town that is now the large square entrance to the palace. All of the attendants inside are very knowledgeable about the inside works of the palace. Note: only steps to enter the upstairs and be careful not to touch anything even the outside walls of the palace.

Great palace, totally worth a visit. It is never too crowded.

A piece of history worth to see. We walked the Palazzo and then had a walk in the gardens. Really beautiful.

I was on twelve years old when I visited this palace for the first time with my family, and I can still recall how amazed I was. Looking back after having travelled around the world, I can say that it was like having a Versailles in your back yard. Paintings and frescoes isn't everybody's cup of tea, but if you are receptive to beauty, then this place is highly recommended, together with the Ducal Palace in Modena (the one on Piazza Roma).

Wanted to visit for quite a long time. Thank God I did, the palace is splendid, surprisingly big and brightly painted. The ballroom and the Bacchus gallery are particularly stunning. The spaces of the palace also hosted part of the collection from Musei Civici di Modena and an exhibition of contemporary art.
