Logge di Banchi, Renaissance loggia near Arno River, Pisa, Italy
The Logge di Banchi features twelve marble pillars supporting a square base structure with an upper floor added in the eighteenth century.
Bernardo Buontalenti designed this marketplace in 1603 under Grand Duke Ferdinando I de'Medici for trading wool, silk, and grain products.
The building serves as a strategic command post during the Gioco del Ponte, a traditional competition where teams battle on the Ponte di Mezzo.
The structure contains public facilities in its underground level, including restrooms and shower services, accessible during daytime hours.
Archaeological excavations beneath the loggia uncovered thirteenth-century gold coins, now exhibited at the Museum of San Matteo.
