This noble palace, arranged over three levels, features a portico consisting of four bays with groin vaults, incorporating the only entrance on Via delle Tovaglie.

The building entrance is enhanced by a pointed-arch portal decorated with a finely worked sandstone archivolt, giving the palace its distinctive appearance.

Inside are a large courtyard and a small cloister, attributable to the original convent complex.

Significant structural works are under way, including seismic improvement, upgrading of the load-bearing walls, consolidation of the existing floor slabs, construction of new floor slabs and a timber roof, as well as energy-efficiency upgrades (A/B rating).

Acoustic insulation, chemical damp-proof barriers and damp-treatment systems are also planned, together with internal and external bio-lime plaster, Venetian-style portico paving, terracotta-strip paving in the inner courtyard, and marble flooring in the entrance hall, stairwell and landings.

Located in Bologna’s historic city centre, a short distance from the Basilica of San Domenico and just steps from the pedestrian area of Via D’Azeglio, Casa Martelli offers a unique opportunity to live and work in a property steeped in history and convenient to all amenities.

The building dates back to the 15th century and is listed among the heritage properties protected by FAI. Originally an ancient convent, it was converted into a private residence by the Arcadian poet and playwright Pier Jacopo Martelli (or Martello) between the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

Here, the distinguished humanist lived with his family and hosted prominent writers and artists, including the celebrated painter Carlo Cignani (Bologna, 1628–1719), as recalled by the plaque affixed beneath the building’s portico.
