Palazzo dei Capitani del Popolo, Renaissance palace in Piazza del Popolo, Ascoli Piceno, Italy.
The palace spans three floors with a medieval tower, featuring large Guelph-cross windows and a detailed stone facade facing the main square.
Built between the 13th and 14th centuries, the structure merged three medieval buildings to house the representatives of artisan classes and city governance.
The Sala della Ragione contains twelve painted wooden panels from the 18th and 19th centuries, documenting the administrative history of Ascoli Piceno.
The Municipal Department of Culture operates from this building, which regularly hosts temporary exhibitions and Municipal Council meetings.
The palace endured a Christmas night fire in 1535, ordered by governor Giovan Battista Quieti to remove political opponents inside the building.
