The Art Nouveau-style palace was built in 1911 by Dr. Luca Antonelli,
a resident of Rome and native of Sassoferrato , as a vacation residence. In the construction are used the best materials available at the time, in the subsequent renovations we have tried, as far as possible , to safeguard and recover these values.

of our town ”SASSOFERRATO”
