Roncale Palace
Rovigo
A tangible symbol of the rise and power of the family of the same name, Palazzo Roncale is one of the main aristocratic palaces standing out on Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II, the beating heart of the city of Rovigo.
Built between 1550 and 1562 to a design by the Veronese architect Michele Sanmicheli, Palazzo Roncale displays a classic and elegant façade characterised by two architectural orders: Doric ashlar on the ground floor, onto which three large arches with masks in the keystones open, and Ionic on the first floor, where six tall and elegant archivolted windows, interspersed with Ionic pilasters, give rhythm to the space.
Palazzo Roncale is owned by the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Padova e Rovigo and since 2016 has been hosting temporary exhibitions that highlight artistic and cultural excellence in the area.
