The building was commissioned by the Grand Duke Francesco I de' Medici, who, although he was already married to Giovanna d'Austria, had foolishly fallen in love with Bianca Cappello and decided to build the Palace by Bernardo Buonotalenti, in a position closest to the grand ducal residence of Palazzo Pitti. A few months later, Bernardino Poccetti was entrusted the decoration of "grotesque" of the façade, which represents the path of the two lovers through symbolic allegories. The subjects represented are usually masks, human figures, animals, spiral plants, putti, being winged, flowers, fruits, defenses, harps and especially vases: an infinity of decorative elements of high symbolic value.
Above the Medici Stemma, in the center of the wall of the Palazzo di Via Maggio, a king and a queen look closely and their eyes appear to remember the moment when Prince Francisco I de 'Medici and the noble wife Bianca Cappello 'swear eternal affection'.
With the premature death of his wife Giovanna, the two lovers were finally able to marry in 1579.
The building has an underground corridor that starts from the foundation and reaches Palazzo Pitti, was used by Bianca Cappello and Francesco I to meet secretly. Thanks to this tunnel, during the Second World War a lot of works were saved in the Vasari corridor. The corridor of the Palace today is no longer accessible.
Near famous places of interest such as the Galleria dell'Academia, Piazza del Duomo and Piazza della Signoria, the White Palace Cappello Residenza d'Epoca is 7 km from Florence-Peretola Airport and the motorway.
