The tower, a primary element of the building, follows a distribution of four bodies, in which the upper open gallery, decided in a similar way from other Renaissance of the city, stands out. It highlights the decoration of the windows, in which pagan and Christian themes are mixed. The courtyard is the central axis of the building.
