Palazzo Stanga "alle punte"
The palace was built at the behest of Marquis Gasparo Stanga in 1750.
The elegant Rococo façade is divided into two wings, slightly set back, which adapt to the irregular course of Corso Garibaldi and is enriched by soft sandstone ornamentation around the windows and graceful wrought iron and stone balconies.
Inside, there are two courtyards bordered by a portico with Tuscan columns.
In the hallway, on the left, is the magnificent grand staircase, decorated with marble cherubs, which leads to the rooms on the main floor; the Stanga coat of arms with a double-headed eagle stands out on the wall.
The name “alle punte” (at the points), coined to distinguish it from the other Stanga palaces in the city, may derive from the building's location in an urban area characterised by the “pointed” confluence of several streets.
