The Museum of Casa Romei

The Museum of Casa Romei in Ferrara is a magnificent example of a noble residence between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, the house has a particularly suggestive courtyard of honor. Casa Romei was built by the merchant Giovanni Romei around the middle of the 15th century and was enlarged and embellished on the occasion of his wedding with Polissena d'Este. The courtyard with its late Gothic style and floral decorations, the Room of the Sibyls and the Prophets, the wooden ceilings and the frescoed vaults and the "Alcova"; constitute a unique artistic corpus in Ferrara. It became a museum in 1953, housing collections of detached frescoes, sculptures and decorations from many destroyed or irremediably modified city buildings. Important artists such as Donatello, Francesco Dal Cossa, Gregorio di Lorenzo, Bastianino, Alfonso Lombardi, echo in the rooms of the Museum and contribute to increasing the charm of a unique and exceptionally fascinating site.
