The quadrangular Counts' Palace is situated on a sandstone block and composed of two buildings, the older standing behind, towards East while the more recent building stands to the West. They are joined and share the same portico which leads to the same entrance.
Inside, the palace opens into a large entrance decorated with grotesques which leads into a courtyard with paintings and a large fountain from where it is possible to reach the apartments of Torquato I. A wide staircase with vaulted ceiling leads from the entrance hall to a landing with painted walls and vaults which leads to the piano nobile (first floor). Some of the rooms on this floor are frescoed and there is also a private chapel.
The oldest part of the palace stands towards east and uses the walls and windows of the medieval fortress built in the late 11th century. The more modern part was built when the fortress was transformed into baronial palace in the 16th century.
The building's walls, both external and internal, are badly detiorated, and the frescoes need immediate restoration.
The Palace belongs to the Municipality, housing its offices on the ground floor while the remainder of the complex is a private residence.
