The twelve sybils are painted in the spandrels. One scence depicts the ''Chariot of Fire of Elias'', and ''Jacob's ladder'' and ''Isaiah''. Two niches have figures of Samson and David. Another room is frescoed with the ''Story of Camillus''. Wall canvases have paintings of Roman history. Other rooms have mythologic frescoes. In 2014, the palace housed offices of the Soprintendenza per i Beni Architettonici e per il Paesaggio per le province di Siena e Grosseto.〔(Beniculturali entry ), director Mario Scalini, Coordinator Laura Martini.〕
