Palazzo Bianchi now Feriotto-Scodellari or Palazzo del Capitanio

Palazzo Feriotto-Scodellari is located along via Minghetti in the heart of Legnago and from its windows it is possible to see the banks of the slow flowing river not far away. Destroyed and injured after the terrible bombings of 1944, it represents what little of ancient that Legnago preserves and is the direct testimony of how the noble houses of the wealthiest Legnaghese families must have been in the Venetian period. Today the Palazzina Veneziana or the Palazzo del Capitanio as many call it, internally it is very different from the residence of the 1500s.

In the central part it is embellished with a typical internal courtyard where, once, a well stood.

On the first floor there are windows surrounded by richly decorated marble while a fine mullioned window denotes the elegance of its forms. A porch, more recent than the central core, completes the building. The stuccos that surround the two portals on the ground floor are not original, but the interior is characterized by an artistic courtyard and beautiful portals in tuff and marble worked. The building is structured on three levels and the works that have taken place over the centuries have radically changed its internal structure. A staircase connects the ground floor with the first and second floors while the most interesting elements are located on the first floor. Here we find a beautiful decorated coffered wooden ceiling dating from the late 1400s and early 1500s where the flowers and the various painted allegories are elegantly crafted. The room is then enhanced by a painted frame close to the ceiling which recalls how the Batorcolo in San Pietro di Legnago, the Sanguinetti palace in Casaleone, and the Villa Cainaqua in Caselle di Pressana are worked. The adjacent room, illuminated by the elegant mullioned window, instead has a ceiling richly painted in the 19th century with floral motifs, musical instruments, baskets of flowers and other allegories made with intense colors above which, hidden by the plastered coat that covers it, it could be another fifteenth-century coffered ceiling similar to that of the room alongside.

The rest of the building has nothing else relevant from a pictorial point of view while the complex is considered by all to be the most beautiful Gothic-Venetian home in Legnago.
