Udine Castle is located in the historic center of the city and is considered the symbol of Friuli. Today the Castle houses the Museum of the Risorgimento and the Archaeological Museum on the ground floor. Along the main floor there is the Ancient Art Gallery with works by Carpaccio, Caravaggio and Tiepolo. On the third floor, however, it is possible to visit the Museum of Photography with images of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. There are also some collections that can normally be consulted by appointment: the Numismatic Collections, the Drawings and Prints Gallery, the Sculpture Collections and Gipsoteca. Furthermore, at the Castle there are two important cultural services open to the public: the Art Library with over 45,000 volumes and about 350 periodicals and the Photo Library which houses more than 180,000 images of photographs, negatives and original plates. Among the most significant works we find the terracotta tabernacles of the Tuscan school, the precious stucco bas-relief made by Giovanni da Udine, the terracotta bust of Francesco Segala and the works of Filippo Parodi. The oldest works owned date back to the sixteenth century, some attributed to Domenico Campagnola, Agostino Carracci and Luca Cambiaso. Among the works of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries we find Giambattista and Giandomenico Tiepolo and the prints by Albrecht Dürer and Rembrandt.
