Palazzo della Macina, Renaissance palace in Luzzara, Italy.

The palace features a loggia with three semicircular arches supported by marble columns adorned with ornate foliage-decorated capitals.

Constructed in 1481 under architect Luca Fancelli's design, the palace originally extended across the entire area south of Luzzara Castle.

The palace's front displays a polychrome ceramic Gonzaga family coat of arms created by Luca della Robbia above the main entrance.

The building now serves as a parish oratory and stands at Piazza Castello 3, accessible through the center of Luzzara.

The name Macina derives from its 18th-century function as a tax collection point for grain milling in the region.
