The palace, a masterpiece of the architect and town planner Biagio Rossetti, was built from 1493 and it's among the most renowned palaces of italian Renaissance.

Piano Nobile is the headquarters of the National Art Gallery, which collects important artworks from the XIII to the XVIII century.

So called because of its particular shape, more than 8500 bulges diamond-shaped, it host, in some way, as much diamonds, meaning the great international and temporary exhibitions organised at the ground floor in collaboration with "Fondazione Ferrara Arte", Modern and Contemporary Art Galleries of Ferrara and "Settore Attività Culturali" of Ferrara's Municipality.
