Palazzo della Missione, Renaissance palace in Oltrarno district, Florence, Italy
The Palazzo della Missione stands at Piazza de' Frescobaldi, where Lungarno Guicciardini meets Via Maggio at the entrance of Ponte Santa Trinita.
The structure replaced the ancient Frescobaldi Palace, which controlled the Santa Trinita bridge and received notable guests including Charles of Valois.
The palace facade displays decorative busts of Medici grand dukes, designed by architect Bernardino Radi during its reconstruction period.
The building currently functions as an extension of the Niccolò Machiavelli State High School, offering international language and science programs.
From 1865 to 1871, when Florence served as Italy's capital, the palace housed the Ministry of the Navy.
