Sasso Mobile

Commissioned at the beginning of the 16th century by Alessandro Bentivoglio, this palace was later owned by the Marescotti family and then by the Pepolis. A few years ago, after having been abandoned for many years, the villa was completely restored with respect for its complex mix of renaissance architecture, as evidenced by its double loggia on the north side of the building, and neoclassical, as seen in the layout assigned to its south side by Angelo Venturoli between the 18th and 19th century. The tympanum is decorated with two angels holding up the family crest, surmounted by an eagle. The interior is graced by painted wooden ceilings, decorations and friezes. Outdoors, the garden still presents pools and fountains that characterized it in its heyday. The two-story stables, divided into three, cross-vaulted naves are also found on the grounds.
