Palazzo Farnese in Gradoli is one of the symbols of this village in the Lazio Maremma. It is an imposing and ancient building designed by Antonio da Sangallo with the aim of making it the summer residence of Pope Paul III. The building stands on the remains of another older castle. Palazzo Farnese then became a convent of the Filipino fathers for a short period of time, then a school, later housed a clinic, later it became an associative seat and town hall until the municipality of Gradoli decided to attribute a precise value connected to the extraordinary charm and charisma. as a point of tourist interest.
