Palazzo del Monte di Pietà Nuovo, Renaissance palace in Piazza Duomo, Padua, Italy
The palace exhibits a classical portico with six arches made of trachite stone blocks, complemented by a Mannerist facade along Via Monte di Pieta.
The Monte di Pieta institution, founded in 1491 by Bishop Pietro Barozzi, obtained this building in 1519 to provide low-interest loans to people in financial need.
The palace, designed by architect Giovan Maria Falconetto in 1530, incorporates elements from 14th-century architecture while maintaining Renaissance proportions and symmetry.
The Palazzo, currently housing the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Padova e Rovigo at Piazza Duomo 14, hosts regular art exhibitions open to visitors.
The building survived a severe fire in 1530, leading to renovations that created its distinct combination of medieval porticos and Renaissance design elements.
