The loggia, dated 1524, is a work by the architect
Giovanni Maria Falconetto from Verona and was designed as an ancient fixed theatre stage: the audience used to place the benches in front of the loggia to watch Ruzzante's plays.
The Odeon owes its name to the octagonal hall at the centre of the ground floor destite to listening to music. The stuccos are by Tiziano Minio, the grotesques and the painting of the central hall are attributed to Gualtiero Padovano.
