The Delizia di Belriguardo is a Renaissance palace built by Niccolo III d'Este in Voghiera, Italy, as a country residence of the ruling House of Este. Lucrezia Borgia stayed there frequently, and at the end of the 15th century the writer Sabadino degli Arienti documented its features; in 1493 Ludovico il Moro praised the palace in a letter to Beatrice d'Este as an exceptionally grand and beautifully decorated house filled with fine paintings. The palace today serves as the headquarters of the Museo civico di Belriguardo.
