As you wander the labyrinthine medieval backstreets of Spoleto, you will pass many an imposing noble palazzo. Certainly, the elegant 17th century Palazzo Mauri should be a stop for bird-lovers and ornithologists.
The building was completely renovated in 2009 and is now the public library. When I visited last year, flowers were being unloaded in front of the palazzo, adding a burst of color to the façade. Inside, what splendor spreads out over readers as paintings adorn most rooms. Works by Alessando Bottoni (17th century) as well as Giuseppe Valerini and Domenico Sergardi (18th century) look down upon the library’s guests.
