Overview

The beautiful Davia Bargellini palace, built between 1638-58, by the architect Bartolomeo Provaglia is characterized by the presence of two big statues called The Giants, sculpted in 1658 by Gabriello Brunelli and Francesco Agnesinion, which decorate the facade. The atrium, in the form of a colonnaded courtyard brings you to the staircase built in 1730 under the guidance of several architects: Torreggiani, Dotti and Conti. The staircase is richly decorated with stuccoes by Giuseppe Borelli. Inside the museum is the Museo Civico di Arte industriale.
