My walk through the streets of Rovigo, in the Veneto, starts from via Giuseppe Laurenti towards Palazzo Roverella.

This palace has an interesting and at the same time particular history: to testify to the prestige of his family, Cardinal Bartolomeo Roverella, promoted the construction of this palace in the fifteenth century. Unfortunately, we do not know for sure which architect was in charge of carrying out this majestic design.
Due to the untimely death of the client, work was interrupted. The interruption continued until the end of World War II, when the restoration of the façade began, which had deteriorated significantly over time.

In 2000, the renovation and completion of the interiors began, thanks to the initiative of the Municipality of Rovigo and the Cassa di Risparmio di Fondazione di Padua and Rovigo. Today, Palazzo Roverella is the prestigious headquarters of the Art Gallery of the Accademia dei Concordi and of the Episcopal Seminary.
