Palazzo Panciatichi, Medieval palace in central Pistoia, Italy

The three-story stone building displays wide ground floor arches, squared windows, and a large overhanging cornice along its main facade.

In 1320, Vinciguerra Panciatichi, a banker and military leader who served King Phillip the Fair, initiated the construction of this residence.

The palace exhibits French Gothic architectural influences through its squared windows, departing from traditional Italian designs of that period.

The Provincial Council of Pistoia holds regular meetings in this building, which underwent complete restoration between 1965 and 1967.

The eastern roofline retains original Guelph merlons, military architectural elements that symbolize the family's political allegiance.
