Palazzo del Seggio, Renaissance palace in Piazza Sant'Oronzo, Lecce, Italy.
The Palazzo del Seggio features Gothic pointed arches on two main facades and a Renaissance loggia with three arches on each side.
Built in 1592 under Mayor Pietro Mogenico, the palace replaced an older structure and served as the headquarters of the city administration.
The vault keys display carved emblems of King Philip II of Spain and the city of Lecce, representing the connection between royal and municipal powers.
The palace now functions as a tourist information center, offering guidance and resources for exploring the historical districts of Lecce.
Archaeological excavations in 1937 modified the square layout, making the palace visible from the remains of the Roman Amphitheater.
