Delizia di Belriguardo (English: Delight of Belriguardo) was an estate owned by Alfonso d'Este, the Duke of Ferrara, during the Renaissance. It was located in the Italian region of Romagna.

History

Construction

Built in 1435 by Niccolò III d'Este as a summer home, Belriguardo was continuously added to until it became one of the most celebrated palaces in Italy. It features stabling for five hundred horses, secret passages, stately corridors, marble loggias, box-lined gardens, and a chapel painted by Cosimo Tura.

Renaissance

In 1506 the Duke's wife, Lucrezia Borgia, discovered the Assassin Ezio Auditore had broken into the estate, evading guards on high alert. Lucrezia was able to summon assistance and Ezio escaped with only a single painting, The Annunciation by Leonardo da Vinci.

Trivia

The palazzo gardens.
  • The only banners within the palazzo, and the only coat of arms worn by the guards, are those of the Borgia. However, the estate was not owned by the Borgia, and by this time had long been disgraced.
