Palazzo Ducale di Urbino
Palazzo Ducale di Urbino reflects Federico's dedication to using pagan imagery to decorate the medieval walls. A small study that faces away from the city and toward the duke's rural lands is the central element. The latticework, paintings, and benches here are stellar examples of Italian inlay. The shelves are filled with musical scores, books, and scientific instruments that reflect the duke's broad interests. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, this Renaissance structure built into the side of a hill.

Quite a big palace and and rich collection of renaissance art. The only Raffaello painting is here. It was brought by Mussolini in the 30s as the birthplace of Raffaello had none.

One of the most well preserved palace of the region and neighbor. Getting inside really gives the vibe of being transported back in the past. By walking through the corridors and rooms you can see beautiful glimpses of Urbino from the windows and the gallery on 1 and 2 floor hold it's ground to the major ones. I have been particularly impressed by the basement and stables. Highly recommended.
-
Dissapointingly meagre collection. A handful of famous paintings in small exposition area in the ground floor. No airconditioning, stifling hot.
-
Amazing place, beautiful castle, work of art! I have no words to describe this place, the vibe that you get inside. Definitely deserve to visit if you're in Urbino!
-
Great exhibition of paintings and sculptures from 14xx - 16xx years. The building itself is also gorgeous. Extra tip for fellow travelers and photographers: Find the tower with the spiral stairs and, if you are lucky enough, you can take great bucket list pictures.
-
One of the most impressive palaces of Italy. Well maintained, serving as a live museum of ancient trades and currently hosting an outstanding exhibition of Raffaello . Sundays entrance is free.
