Palazzo del Littorio, Fascist regime headquarters in Montevarchi, Italy.
Palazzo del Littorio is a government building in Montevarchi characterized by exposed brick walls accented with travertine stone. A distinctive tower rises prominently above the structure, dominating the plaza below.
The building was constructed between 1937 and 1939 on the site of a former cattle market. It represented a major public works initiative carried out during a period of economic expansion in the city.
The first floor meeting room contained frescoes by painter Arrigo Dreoni depicting scenes from the fascist period, reflecting the political influence on Italian art.
The building now houses several government offices, with the Register Office located on the ground floor and the Tax Office on the first floor. It sits directly on Piazza Garibaldi, making it easy to locate and access.
A semicircular wall forms the building's head, connecting to an elongated west front through a distinctive littoria tower that functions as an urban reference point.
