Palazzo Lambertenghi, Como

It belonged to the Lambertenghi until the eighteenth century, then to the Guaita, the Lucini Passalacqua and finally the Galli di Rondineto family. The large twentieth-century restorations lost almost all the seventeenth-century decoration, but Giovan Battista Recchi's fresco remains in the ground-floor hall facing the garden. The palazzo is private property and opens only for events; from the street you see the rusticated stone portal and, through the entrance hall, the gate onto the courtyard.
