As it stood in 1480
The shape it held in its prime.
The palace presents a fortress façade of uniform pale limestone ashlar with a central pointed-arched main gateway flanked by two massive cylindrical drum towers with projecting machicolated corbels and crenellated parapets. A Gothic pointed traceried window sits above the entrance within the curtain wall, which extends left and right with regular small windows and crenellations. Sloping stone glacis abuts the base on the right; the stone is smoothly cut and the roofs and battlements are intact as viewed in its prime.
