Palazzo Salimbeni, Medieval Gothic palace in Siena, Italy
The Palazzo Salimbeni displays Gothic-style architecture with triple mullioned windows, decorative merlons, and Lombard bands across its stone facade.
Built in the 14th century for the wealthy Salimbeni merchant family, the palace stands upon foundations dating back to the 12th and 13th centuries.
The palace presently functions as the headquarters of Monte dei Paschi di Siena bank, which maintains continuous operations since the medieval period.
Located in Piazza Salimbeni near Via Banchi di Sopra, the palace exterior remains visible while the interior stays closed to public visits.
The 19th-century renovation by Giuseppe Partini incorporated design elements from Siena's Palazzo Pubblico into the building's facade.
