The space of Stables is settled in the princely palace commissioned by Galeazzo Visconti in the later 14th century for Pavia, only 20 minutes far from Milano.

The internal fronts of the castle are one of the most particular manifestations of Gothic Lombard architecture and from the end of the second world war the Castel is the seat of the City Museums of Pavia which includes important art works from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance printed by big masters such as Antonello Da Messina, Pollaiolo and many others.
