Delizia del Belriguardo

Delizia di Belriguardo, summer residence of the Este court and the first of the delizie built outside the walls of Ferrara, is known as the “Versailles of the Este” for the richness of its frescoes and the large Italian gardens that once surrounded it. Today it houses the Civic Museum, divided into four sections: Archaeology, Renaissance in the evocative frescoed Sala della Vigna, Modern Art and Industrial Archaeology with objects from everyday life.
