Castles, palaces and mansions

Palazzo Spada

Palazzo Spada is located in the historic center of Terni. It was created by the noble Spada family in the mid-16th century under the project of Antonio da Sangallo the Younger. Inside the rooms we find, a depiction of Fetone punished by Jupiter, scenes from the battle of Lepanto and frescoes by Karel van Mander. In the 18th century there was the renovation during which a façade was built that serves as a bridge in connecting the side wings. The building passed to the Massarucci family and later to the Sisters of the Child Jesus and is currently the seat of the Town Hall of Terni.

Castles, palaces and mansions

Palazzo Montani

The palace was built in 1584, by Aurelio Fazioli. Between 1654 and the second half of the 19th century, the palace was bought by four other noble families and then moved to the Municipality of Terni in 1873. In 1877 the municipality sold it to the Cassa di Risparmio di Terni. From 1992 until today it is the headquarters of the Cassa di Risparmio di Terni and Narni Foundation. The renovation started in 1995 and ended in 2009, allowed us to build a study on the history of the building.
