Casa Fontana Silvestri

The Casa Fontana Silvestri was built in the twelfth century. It was the home of the guardian of the Oriental Gate, Angelo Fontana. Its current appearance is attributed to the reconstruction made in the fourteenth century. The building is developed around the courtyard. Originally the façade was rich in frescoes by Bramante, but over the centuries they have almost all disappeared, you can see only a few remains under the cornice.
