A cultural landmark in the heart of Assisi

The restoration and redevelopment of Palazzo Vallemani in Assisi represent a key intervention to preserve and enhance one of the city’s most significant historic buildings. Located in the heart of the old town, just a few steps from the Basilica of Saint Francis, the Palazzo stands as a symbol of Assisi’s architectural heritage and a vital meeting place for the local community.

Regeneration supported by the PNRR

Funded by Italy’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), the project aims to restore the Palazzo’s full functionality while integrating new uses that strengthen its civic and cultural role. The intervention includes:

• the recovery of areas assigned to local cultural associations,

• the redevelopment of outdoor spaces and adjacent urban pathways,

• the improvement of accessibility through new vertical connection systems.

Balancing heritage and innovation

The design approach combines respect for historical and artistic value with the adoption of innovative technologies to enhance sustainability, safety, and comfort. The restoration focuses on preserving the Palazzo’s original architectural features while ensuring inclusive and accessible spaces for all users.

A renewed center for culture and community

Through this project, Palazzo Vallemani is set to become once again a vibrant hub of culture, social life, and identity for the city of Assisi — a place where historical memory and contemporary design coexist in perfect balance.
