Palazzo Borromeo D'Adda
39-41 Via Alessandro ManzoniAbout
This building, the result of various stages of construction, was completed in the 19th century. The late Neoclassical façade was designed by Gerolamo Arganini (1820-1825) for Marquis Febo d'Adda, and it was later extended during the course of the 19th century. The front façade, with wide, horizontal lines, presents a rusticated ashlar strip alternating with regularly-positioned windows, while those of the first floor have alternately triangular and curving pediments. The plan is organized around three interior courtyards.
