Reaching Matteotti Square, on the left is Palazzo Massi Mauri (now Carfagna-Capocasa) in the shape of a ship's hull, from the 18th century. It was declared a national monument by the Ministry of Culture (now Education) in 1933 for its balcony fitted with a wrought-iron railing with the family crest and rich ornamentation, the work of Ascolan master ironworker Francesco Tartufoli. The railing was commissioned by Giacomo Massi on the occasion of his son Luca Antonio's marriage to Marchesa Alvitreti of Ascoli Piceno. The center depicts the coat of arms of the Massi Mauri family with 6 equal heraldic figures to the right and left representing a precise message for the bride and groom: Falco (wisdom), Basilisk (continuity of lineage), Dove (harmony), Asmodeus (demon that destroys marriages, testing them with 7 pitfalls), Stork (fertility) and Alcyone (love that lasts even after death). The palace was sold in the early 20th century to the Carfagna-Capocasa family, whose heirs are the current owners. In 1943, during the war, the roof and balcony of the palace were damaged, but the Civil Engineers renovated it between the 1950s and 1960s.
