Along the first stretch of Via Benedetto Cairoli we note on the right Palazzo Casalini (No. 8), formerly the residence of the Bernabei nobles in the 16th century, then of a branch of the Jacobilli (from 1730 until the end of the century) and finally in the 19th century of the Casalini family. The building consists of three floors separated by stone stringcourses, plus a basement and a service attic. The Renaissance origin of the palace, owned by Bernabei, is evidenced by the arched and architraved portal, on which is the inscription SIT FOELIX QUICUNQ. SUBIT MDXVIII. The decoration of the main floor windows with festoons and trophies of arms in the alternately curved and triangular tympanums is remarkable. The cornice is also particularly rich, with stucco decorations (shells) and corbels among which appear, symmetrically arranged, heraldic references to the Jacobilli family (owners of the palace in the 18th century).
