Palazzo Te è un edificio monumentale situato a Mantova. E' stato costruito tra il 1524 e il 1534 su commissione di Federico II Gonzaga, secondo un progetto di Giulio Romano, allievo prediletto di Raffaello. Oltre al complesso architettonico il maestro manierista è l'autore anche di tutto l'impianto decorativo del Palazzo. Oggi Museo civico della città, è anche sede della Fondazione di Palazzo Te, già Centro internazionale d'arte e di cultura di Palazzo Te dal 1990, istituzione che organizza mostre d'arte antica e moderna ed eventi culturali.

Interesting visit. Some spectacular displays from the average to the weird and wonderful. The giants room is impressive as is the grotto.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 127 reviews
An extraordinary path enriched by the spectacular frescoes by the Flemish painter FRANS GEFFELS (1625-1694) and the magnificent stucco decorations by GIOVAN BATTISTA BARBERINI (1625-1691), through more than 500 years of history, in a fascinating Baroque atmosphere, discovering one of the most secret pages of the ancient Mantua cultural civilization. PALAZZO VALENTI GONZAGA in Mantua, humiliated by the ruin, oblivion and pillage suffered during the early twentieth century, has been restored to its splendor to show its renewed magnificence. The memory of the Marquises VALENTI GONZAGA'S noble offspring continues to live in the rediscovered dignity of their illustrious dwelling.

This single room in Mantua’s Ducal Palace complex is a masterpiece of political, cultural and social storytelling by fresco, works painted by Andrea Mantegna and commissioned by the all powerful Gonzaga family in the late 15th century. Amazing, spell binding art.

This is a car museum without cars. The life and driving history of one of the great drivers in auto racing is presented in pictures and video. This man was a giant when automobile racing was in it's infancy. Well worth the moment to visit.
