Located in very north of Tuscany, Palazzo del Duca was the residence of Este Family during the dukedom period of Modena and Reggio ( 1598 – 1796 ). The eagle you can see in the coat of arms on the main door of the mansion is its evidence...

Palazzo del Duca is situated in the lovely 13th century village of Tavernelle along the old Via del Sale (Salt Road).
Recently restored and refurbished, 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 one bedroom there is even a fireplace, a 'must' for all the ancient Dukes of the past.

At Palazzo del Duca’s disposal is a large 800 sqm internal garden where an in ground 4x8m swimming pool has recently been realized.
Palazzo del Duca consists of 5 beautiful apartments and 2 double bedrooms. Each apartment is independent from each other with its own kitchen and heating. Each bedroom of Palazzo del Duca has its own bathroom.

Each apartment has its own charming style. For example the Templari apartment on the ground floor retains some of the original kitchen facilities while Luni apartment is reminiscent of a New York loft apartment.
The apartments can be rented together allowing the stay of 8 – 12- 18 persons. Also ideal location for weddings, family meetings and events in fact the whole palace may be rented to a max. of 26 people.
