Extract from the Recanati Travel Guides:
On the central Piazza Leopardi, the town's
Pinacoteca Civica
(Tues-Sun 10am-1pm & 4-7pm; L6000/?3,09) is housed in the nineteenth-century
Palazzo Comunale
, a fussy mock-Renaissance symbol of Recanatese obtuseness - in order to build it they ripped down a fine medieval palace. All that remains of the original palace is the vast
Torre del Borgo
, glowering down on the municipal architecture that surrounds it. Once inside the gallery you can forget all this and lose yourself in Gigli's world, evoked by costumes worn by the great tenor, presents received by him (including a dagger from D'Annunzio),... read the whole Recanati Travel Guides...
