Palazzo del Monte di Pietà, Renaissance palace in Piazza dei Signori, Vicenza, Italy
The palace extends along three sides with its main facade facing Piazza dei Signori and two wings along Contra del Monte and Contra Manin.
The Monte di Pietà institution opened on June 12, 1486, following the expulsion of Jewish moneylenders from Vicenza, establishing a new lending system.
The palace incorporates the Church of San Vincenzo in its central section, combining religious architecture with institutional functions in a single structure.
Located at Contra del Monte 13 in Vicenza, the building now houses the Monte di Pietà Foundation, which supports social and cultural initiatives.
During the French occupation in 1797, the palace experienced a significant robbery where numerous valuable items from its pawnshop collection disappeared.
