Palazzo Pepoli, Medieval palace museum in Bologna, Italy
The Palazzo Pepoli spans multiple floors with Gothic architectural features, displaying brick construction and traditional medieval fortification elements along Via Castiglione.
The palace construction started in 1344 under Taddeo Pepoli's direction and remained in the family's possession until 1910 when it transferred to municipal ownership.
The Museum of Bologna History within Palazzo Pepoli presents exhibitions covering 2500 years of local development through artifacts and multimedia installations.
Located at Via Castiglione 8, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM with a general admission fee of 10 euros.
The central courtyard contains a modern glass and steel Tower of Time structure, designed by Mario Bellini, which channels natural light throughout the building.
