Palazzo degli Anziani, Gothic municipal palace in Pistoia, Italy
The Palazzo degli Anziani rises in stone at Piazza del Duomo, featuring three ground floor arches and mullioned windows on its main facade.
Construction of the palace began in 1295 during Giano della Bella's tenure as potestà, requiring the purchase of surrounding properties near Pistoia Cathedral.
The City Museum of Ancient Art within the palace displays paintings from the 13th to 20th centuries, including works by Coppo di Marcovaldo.
Visitors can explore both the municipal government offices and the museum collections, which include sculptures and decorative arts across multiple floors.
A black marble head on the facade, along with hanging prison keys from 1399, represents historical elements of justice and civil authority.
