There are places full of history and poetry…
This impressive ancient palace of the 17th century, also known as Palazzo del Duca, set on the historic main borgo of Tavernelle, was a summer residence of the Podestà and Este Family (Duke of Parma).
Restored in 1991 and renewed in 2008, the palace has its original features, like spacious living areas and terracotta floors,  local sandstone portals and doors and  stunning vaults. It also boasts a wonderful ancient staircase and  in a bedroom there is even a fireplace, a 'must' for all the ancient Lords of the 1700.

The access to Palazzo del Duca is from the main road of Tavernelle.
The palace has a secondary access onto an internal private partially paved garden which provides a peaceful area for relaxing, dining and cooling-off on summer evenings.

A BRAND NEW IN GROUND  SWIMMING POOL(4X8) HAS JUST BEEN BUILT IN THE INTERNAL GARDEN.

LUNI

This apartment breaks the old fashion style of the palace.
On the second floor of the palace, it develops on two levels. On the first one there is the nice coloured brand new kitchen with American style fridge. On the second level you find the living and sleeping area. In the living area a flaming red sofa bed makes a good colour contrast with the oak parquet floor. From the living area a hallway  brings you to the large bathroom and to the double bedroom and to the children bedroom. Again here you find the parquet floor. The loft is enlightened thanks to four skylights, 2 in the living area, 1 in the bathroom, 1 in the double bedroom.
Luni apartment is suitable from a min of 3 persons to a max. of 5 people.
Both from the skylights and from the 2 windows in the dining/kitchen room you have a wonderful surrounding mountains view.
