Valuable rural casino of the sixteenth century. In the eighteenth century it could have been the residence of the Masdoni or the Omozzoli-Parisetti. It then passed to the Opera Pia della Carità, to the Ancini and from them to the Rocca-Saporiti; in the nineteenth century it was the summer seat of Bishop Guido Rocca-Saporiti (1817-1886). From the heirs of this family it was then bought in 1926 by the Archhospital of Reggio. Despite a notification of constraint of 26/10/1970 by the Superintendence of Monuments of Emilia (Architectural and Environmental Heritage), has long remained in a state of deplorable abandonment and ruin (1) until a full restoration and functional recovery that has assigned it to library and administrative support services to the hospital.The building retains a seventeenth-century cornice, once perhaps frescoed. On the main floor there are full-sixth windows and, in the eastern part, a portico with three arches with external staircase (2). Inside there is a large room with a coffered ceiling and a frieze painted by Reggio artists of the second half of the sixteenth century (3). Mariani-Cerati suggests that the central part with the spiral staircase and the large frescoed room may have been part of a torrazzo. In recent years it has been the subject of a beautiful restoration carried out by architects Giorgio Adelmo Bertani and Francesca Vezzali who have enhanced the architectural features and parties.See the form prepared by the tourist office of Reggio Emilia.
