The place
The building is accessed through an imposing stone portal that gives a large court. On the ground floor you can still guess the service rooms of the noble residence, while at the bottom of the court stands the noble residence. Here there is a second internal facade, characterized by large openings with round windows, distributed over three floors. On the ground floor three harmonious stone portals give access, on the left side, to a beautiful stone staircase that leads to the upper floors.
The building was donated in 1912 by Decio Ripandelli to the Municipality, to house a kindergarten for children in need. Recently restored, it now houses rooms for exhibitions and exhibitions, as well as the Toy Museum, consisting of a collection of handicraft and vintage games. During the Christmas period is the center of the activities that animate the village: the palace is transformed into the House of Santa Claus, to the delight of children.
