Casa Cantù
On Via Italia, at the corner with Vicolo Ambrogiolo, we find Casa Cantù. Here an earlier building owned by Franco Cantù was reformed in the early 1920s to a design by architect Aristide Conti, following the dictates of the Art Nouveau style.
This style is joined by assonances of neo-medieval taste, perhaps due to the influence of the nearby church of S. Maria in Strada.
