Domus Mercatorum, Medieval palace in Piazza delle Erbe, Verona, Italy.

The stone edifice features a ground-level portico with columns, decorated mullioned windows on upper floors, and distinctive swallow-tail battlements at the top.

The structure, commissioned by Alberto I della Scala in 1301, replaced a wooden building to establish a central location for wool trading in medieval Verona.

The palace housed the Merchants Guild, where the podestà served as both administrator and judge for commercial disputes among local traders and manufacturers.

The building now functions as the headquarters of Banca Popolare di Verona and can be observed from the exterior during guided tours of the city.

The nineteenth-century restoration added Ghibelline-style battlements to the structure, modifying its original medieval appearance with new architectural elements.
