Palazzo Borromeo, Italy | Isola Bella, Lake Maggiore | 4K Tour of the breathtaking Borromeo Palace

The Borromeo palace is a seventeenth-century building located on Isola Bella, on Lake Maggiore, whose gardens extend to the southern tip of the islet. It still belongs to the Borromeo family. The building, characterized by a T-shaped plan, stands at the northern end of the island, dominated by the 80 linear m long facade, with the curvilinear projection of the hall of honor in the center, developed on two floors and covered by a domed roof. The chapel of the building, also on the ground floor, houses objects that belonged to San Carlo Borromeo and Cardinal Federico, as well as three sepulchral monuments of personalities of the family. On the first floor, around the central hall, there are decorated and furnished rooms, including the Napoleon room, where he stayed in 1797, the Throne room and the Music room, where the Stresa conference was held in 1935, between Benito Mussolini, Pierre Laval and Ramsay MacDonald. 0:00 Inside the Palace 5:21 Grotte (Grottoes) 7:36 Inside the Palace 8:42 Giardini
