The last owner and resident of Palazzo Falson was Captain Olof Frederick Gollcher O.B.E. (1889-1962), who was of Swedish heritage. A researcher, artist, philanthropist, and avid collector of art and historical artifacts, Gollcher amassed an exceptionally rich collection now showcased in the Palazzo.
This collection is a remarkable treasure trove of over 3,500 objects, organized into forty-five distinct collections across 17 rooms of the museum. The paintings collection features several notable 17th-century works, including pieces attributed to Mattia Preti, Jusepe de Ribera, Jakob-Ferdinand Voet, Charles Beale, and Juriaen van Streeck.
