SALONE ESTENSE – PALAZZO ESTENSE
The Salone Estense (also known as the “Salone d'Onore”) is one of the most noble and spectacular rooms of Palazzo Estense, a residence commissioned by Duke Francesco III d'Este in the second half of the 18th century and now the seat of the Municipality of Varese.
Located on the ground floor, it features an imposing fireplace in polychrome marble, created by Antonio Buzzi, surmounted by the portrait of the Duke. The walls and ceiling are enriched by fake illusionistic architecture painted by Lodovico Bosellini and a large central medallion frescoed by Giovanni Battista Ronchelli, depicting Jupiter, Venus and Cupid in homage to the royal wedding.
Today the hall is used for official ceremonies, conferences, concerts and civil weddings.
