In 1717, the palace was bequeathed by will to the Congregazione Caritatevole di S. Paolo (Charitable Congregation of St. Paul), which had its seat there for sixty years, as evidenced by the fresco depicting the saint, still visible on the facade of the turret that serves as a bell tower.
Inside, coffered ceilings cover the spacious rooms on the piano nobile.
The interior rooms, which have undergone major restoration, periodically host artistic and ethnographic exhibitions
