Panel

The palace was built shortly before 1740 on the initiative of the noble Trentini family. The façade, developed in height and characterized by a sober balcony, is among the most elegant of the eighteenth century in Trentino. The interior rooms were decorated between 1750 and 1765 by the Veronese painters Giorgio Anselmi and Orlando Fattori, the Bolzan painter Carl Henrici and the Milanese painter Pietro Antonio Bianchi. Also notable are the exuberant white and gold stucco and the majolica stoves in rococo shapes.Palazzo Trentini is now the seat of the Council of the Autonomous Province of Trento, with the Presidency and all the offices of the entity. The Sala dell 'Aurora, which will host some of the Festival's events, is considered the Palace's most prestigious venue. It is dominated by a large vault decorated with fake architecture and frescoed around 1750 with the Triumph of the Dawn, an allegory of the rise of the Trentini family, by an excellent Venetian school artist whose identity is still disputed by scholars.

Standing in the shadow of the ancient ramparts, for a long time Piazza Fiera was the beating heart of the city's markets and commerce, hence its name (which means “fair” or “market”).
The wide open spaces make Piazza Fiera ideal for hosting large business events, as well as cultural and musical gatherings. It serves as an important intersection for the city’s public transport, and the underground multi-storey car park means it is easily accessible by car.

Palazzo Sardagna, current home of the offices of the Rectorate of the University of Trento, is one of the masterpieces of Mannerism and early Baroque in Trentino. Dating from the 16th century, the building is built around a large central courtyard, the largest among those found in the city's historic buildings. From the exterior, walking through the entrance hall embellished with heraldic coats of arms, one enters the courtyard punctuated by a double order of loggias and long galleries.

The Diocesan Museum is located in the splendid Piazza Duomo, next to the Cathedral of San Vigilio, in Palazzo Pretorio. In its rooms it exhibits a rich heritage of art and culture ranging from the 11th to the 19th century: paintings, wooden sculptures, illuminated manuscripts, iconographic testimonies of the Council of Trent, precious goldsmith's art, ancient embroideries and sumptuous Flemish tapestries.
The museum also manages the early Christian Basilica of San Vigilio, the Porta Veronensis (1st century AD), or the ancient monumental entrance to the Roman Tridentum, and the Civic Tower, which with its 45 meters high is the unmistakable symbol of the city.
