Palazzo dei Priori, Gothic city palace in Piazza IV Novembre, Perugia, Italy

The Palazzo dei Priori extends along Corso Vannucci with irregular facades, incorporating Gothic windows, trefoil portals, and ornate architectural elements throughout its structure.

The National Gallery of Umbria occupies the upper floors, displaying an extensive collection of regional art from the 13th to 19th centuries across 40 exhibition rooms.

Visitors can reach the palace by taking bus lines Z20 or Z21 to Piazza Giacomo Matteotti, located 170 meters from the building entrance.
