The original 16th-century palace was accessed through the entrance at Via Malaspina, and was refurbished by the Marquis Luigi Malaspina di Sannazaro (1754-1835). The iron gate is flanked by two converging screens with an eclectic array of decoration. On each side, two columns each flank a marble bust. From the street, the screen on the right has a bust of Boethius, the one on the left depicts Petrarch. One representing the rational enterprise, the other the poetic enterprise. The allegorical figures atop reinforce these themes. Beyond the elegantly decorated iron gate is the main entrance through a portico of five arches, it leads to a grand staircase. The piano nobile has various frescoed and stuccoed rooms.The entrance of Piazza Petrarca was completed in by 1835 has a more sober neoclassical facade.
