Pula Communal Palace, Gothic town hall at Forum Square, Pula, Croatia.
The Communal Palace incorporates architectural elements from ancient Roman times through Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque periods in its stone facade and interior spaces.
Built in 1296 on the site of the former Temple of Diana, this palace has continuously served as the municipal seat of Pula for over seven centuries.
The palace facade displays stone carvings with Latin inscriptions about civic unity, alongside reliefs depicting a horseman and mythological figures from medieval times.
The building functions as the current city council headquarters, housing administrative offices and municipal meeting rooms for local government activities.
Medieval stone decorations include a grotesque telamon figure bearing the weight of the building and a Romanesque mermaid holding the tips of stone fins.
