Palazzo Silva Persichelli

The palace is a multi-layered complex of interventions from different periods, although its current layout is the result of the expansion of the 16th-century Casa Amidani, which also incorporated adjacent buildings.
It was Marquis Giovanni Battista Silva who, after purchasing the property in 1781, commissioned architect Faustino Rodi to make the necessary changes.
With the death of Marquis Silva in 1786, inheritance disputes began, which ended in 1803 with the assignment of the property to Marquis Antonio Maria Persichelli.
In 1844, the large building was sold to the Jesuit Fathers for the opening of a college for young nobles.
With the expulsion of the Jesuits from Lombardy-Veneto, the palace became public property and in 1864 the Municipality of Cremona decided to purchase it for use as the offices of the judiciary.

The main entrance opens onto a vestibule leading to two porticoed courtyards that lead to the elegant staircase decorated with stucco busts of illustrious men.
The rooms on the ground floor and the main floor feature 19th-century decorations in white and gilded stucco.
