Built in the 16th century on the site of a medieval farm, and then largely remodeled in the 18th century, the palace was a holiday resort and administrative headquarters for the Toppo family's business. Once the family died out, the building passed into public hands and today belongs to the Municipality of Travesio.
The entrance takes place through a door, on whose architrave is engraved the date 1543 and a rather enigmatic Latin welcome phrase, which apparently invites the good to stay outside and only let the bad enter (in reality it is a play on words : the meaning is the opposite). From the courtyard you enter the palace or access the noble chapel of San Girolamo, which preserves, among other things, a painted stone statue of Santa Lucia; on the right another door gives access to a fenced green area, almost a private garden.
Inside the palace, in the atrium there are two frescoes of popular sacred art from the 18th century, torn from the facades of unsafe buildings after the 1976 earthquake; on the ground floor there are three side rooms, now used for reception. The first floor is dominated by two adjacent central halls, which often host art and photography exhibitions. Finally, the second floor is structured with a single large space, nowadays used to host conferences and presentations.
