Work Notes:
The castello remained virtually unchanged from its fourteenth and fifteenth century design until the second quarter of the eighteenth century. These renovations focused on the garden facade, which went through two renovations. The Neoclassical design of the facade as it exists today was completed in 1792. It was commissioned by Alberico XII and designed by the austrain architect Leopold Pollock (1751-1806).
