It was built by the Lombard master Lucio Tosani, during the reign of Prince-Bishop Bernardo Clesio, starting in 1515. Around the mid-18th century above the two portals were placed the marble reliefs by Francesco Oradini depicting the Martyrdom and Glory of the child Simone (Simon of Trent). This boy was the presumed ritual victim of the Jews on Easter 1475. The mansion rises on the site where the synagogue of the small Jewish community of Trento used to stand. less
