Palazzo Agostini, Gothic palace on Lungarno Pacinotti, Pisa, Italy

The red brick building features Gothic mullioned windows with terracotta frames and extends across three floors along the northern bank of the Arno River.

The structure originated in the 14th century when the Astajo family combined two medieval towers, and the Agostini family acquired it in 1496 for their silk trade.

The palace houses Caffè dell'Ussero on its ground floor, established in 1775, which became a central gathering place for university intellectuals and Italian patriots.

The building maintains its original architectural elements while incorporating modern amenities such as an elevator and remains under private ownership of the Agostini family.

The palace includes a multilevel private roof garden and connects to the former Cinema Lumière, which operated from 1905 to 2011 as one of Italy's first cinemas.
