Palazzo Bocchi

Palazzo Bocchi, in Via Goito, was designed around the middle of the 16th century by Vignola. It was owned by Achille Bocchi and soon became the site of the Hermatema Academy founded by the same.

The building is characterised by a high plinth that features two large inscriptions: one of these is the only example in Italy and in Europe of writing in Hebrew on a monumental building, reproducing a verse of Psalm 120 of the Psalter.

The interior features 16th-century frescoes by Prospero Fontana.
