Palazzo delle Vedove, Medieval palace in Pisa, Italy
The Palazzo delle Vedove stands at the intersection of Via Santa Maria and Via Trento, featuring a marble quadruple mullioned window on its exterior facade.
Built between the 12th and 14th centuries on the former property of the Bocci family, the palace underwent substantial modifications during the 16th century renovations.
The palace earned its name as the residence for Medici family widows, who used covered passages to reach the church of San Nicola without walking the streets.
Visitors can access the palace during their exploration of central Pisa, with the location near other historical buildings and main tourist destinations.
Two enclosed passageways connected the palace to Torre De Cantone and San Nicola church, allowing noble women to maintain privacy during their daily activities.
