Palazzo Scotti in Castelbosco Marazzani is a historic building dating back to the first half of the 1700s. The village of Castelbosco is in the municipality of Gragnano Trebbiense, in the province of Piacenza

 

"Commissioned by the Marquis Annibale Adeodato Scotti in 1736, Count of Campremoldo and San Giorgio and Marquis of Castelbosco, who was ducal ambassador at the court of Madrid and became an enemy of Cardinal Alberoni. The long façade marked by rectilinear frames that space the three series of elegant windows, the harmonious internal portico with refined combinations of decorated doors and the majestic grand staircase with a single flight recall the compositional hand of the Romagna architect Domenico Morelli, already author of Palazzo Anguissola di Grazzano in via Roma, making this palace one of the most important in the city"  

 

During the second half of the 18th century, the Romagna architect Cosimo Morelli intervened to redesign the atrium portal and the colonnaded courtyard, while an architectural firm from Piacenza oversaw the renovation of the private home. Inside the Palace, which has recently undergone restoration, there is a house with an independent entrance made up of two connected but completely autonomous units
