Broletto, Medieval town hall in Piazza del Duomo, Brescia, Italy.
The Broletto features two distinct towers, including the 54-meter Tower of Pègol with its Ghibelline crenellations and a smaller stone Poncarali Tower.
Construction of this administrative complex began in 1187, with major modifications occurring after the 1512 Sack of Brescia during the War of the League of Cambrai.
The entrance portal displays monolithic pillars from Roman times made of Egyptian granite, transferred from the demolished cathedral of San Pietro de Dom.
The building continues to function as the primary location for municipal and provincial administration offices of Brescia, maintaining its original governmental purpose.
The Loggia delle Grida balcony, destroyed by French forces in 1797 and reconstructed in the 20th century, served as a platform for public announcements.
