Palazzo Comunale, Town hall in Piazza della Repubblica, Foligno, Italy

The Palazzo Comunale exhibits a neoclassical facade with five semicircular arches supporting a travertine parapet and six Ionic columns across three floors.

The palace underwent reconstruction between 1546 and 1642 upon thirteenth-century foundations, with further renovations following the 1832 earthquake under architect Antonio Mollari.

The Town Council chamber contains ceiling frescoes from 1883 depicting allegorical figures of Wisdom, Strength, Prudence, Justice, along with portraits of sixteen notable citizens.

The building houses municipal offices, the Town Council chamber, and the Museum of Municipal Institution, which displays historical documents from the 15th to 19th centuries.

Inside the courtyard stands a 16th-century well bearing an inscription that names the six priors who served in the municipal magistrate during September-October 1567.
