One of the palaces built by Ezzelino III, known as the Terrible, witness to medieval Padua.The original manufacture appears to date from the 12th century.Ezzelino Palace
The architectural image seems to have been largely configured around the 13th century, due to the similarities with the municipal buildings of the same period, clearly visible for example in the shapes of the stained glass windows on the upper floor.The house, surmounted by an elegant 15th-century Nanto stone coat of arms, was affected by fire in 1760, from 1794 to 1873 the rooms above the vault were reduced to a theater hall.On the facade of the building to the right of the Volto della Malvasia, a plaque with a bronze medallion was barbarically hung here in 1944 in memory of Flavio Busonera, member of the resistance.The palace is currently a private building and cannot be visited internally.Source: padovanet.it/informazione/palazzo-di-ezzelino
