Palazzo Cusani

Splendid decor

The earliest documents regarding this building date to the late 16th century: in the early years of the following century, cardinal Agostino Cusani refurbished it to give it greater prestige. Its central plan is developed around a rectangular courtyard with porticoes on two sides and granite columns. The façade facing Via Brera, dating to 1717 and by Giovanni Ruggeri, has two portals and a remarkably decorative architectural structure. Towards the rear, the building was finished by Giuseppe Piermarini in 1790, and it still conserves original interiors and stucco-work.
