Marche Region of Italy

Marche or the Marches is one of the twenty regions of Italy. The name of the region derives from the plural name of marca, originally referring to the medieval March of Ancona and nearby marches of Camerino and Fermo. Marche is well known for its shoemaking tradition, with the finest and most luxurious Italian footwear being manufactured in this region.

History

A palace at the site was begun in the 16th-century, but the present layout was mainly established during 1777-1785 by designs by Tommaso Bicciaglia who was working for the Montani family. The palace then passed on to the Antaldi family from 1808 to 1858. Subsequent owners included the families of the Meli (1859) [1] , Pompucci (1882), and Santini (1947). By the latter date, the palace had fallen in need of repair, and it would be later purchased by the Cassa di Risparmio di Pesaro, who performed a restoration between 1986 to 1991.

The interior courtyard was adapted to form a large auditorium. The Piano nobile has frescoes (1777-1781) depicting stories of the Aenid by Carlo Paolucci and Placido Lazzarini, followers of Giovanni Andrea Lazzarini. In 2005, the Cassa di Risparmio inaugurated a display of its art and artifact collections, including paintings, maps, and ceramics. [2]
