The Palazzo Ducale del Giardino was a destination for artists, the curious, collectors from all over Europe. It was the royal palace of Parma, with its garden, its beautiful fountain at the entrance, then its greenhouses and orange groves.
Harmoniously surrounded by the greenery of the Parco Ducale, the imposing palace commissioned by Ottavio Farnese in 1561 and built to a design by Vignola stands out for its typical "Parma yellow" for its grandeur and beauty.
However, its current appearance is the result of several renovations by both Bibiena and, in 1767, by Ennemond Petitot.
