Barozzi palace

Palazzo Contrari-Boncompagni is an elegant Renaissance palace which is almost entirely morphologically intact. It was built between the early 1560s and 1567, on order of Ercole (Hercules) Contrari the Elder (a feudatory of Vignola) by the "master mason" Bartolomeo Tristano of Ferrara, on the design of the great Vignolese architect Jacopo Barozzi, who is known as The Vignola; for this reason, the palace is also known as Palazzo Barozzi.
