Palazzo dei Priori, Gothic palace in Piazza del Popolo, Todi, Italy

The Palazzo dei Priori displays Gothic architecture with pointed arches, stone walls, and Renaissance-style windows added during the 16th century modifications.

The palace construction began at the end of the 13th century, with major expansions occurring between 1334 and 1347 on its right side.

The bronze eagle sculpture created by Giovanni di Gigliaccio in 1339 decorates the top left corner, representing a symbol of local power.

The building currently houses the Magistrate's Court and Municipal Offices, maintaining its role as an administrative center in Todi.

Local legend states that an eagle determined Todi's location by snatching settlers' mapping sheet and dropping it on the hilltop where the city stands.
