Palazzo Comunale, Renaissance municipal palace in Piazza del Duomo, Crema, Italy.

Palazzo Comunale occupies the whole west side of Piazza del Duomo, built between 1525 and 1540 in a Renaissance style that mixes Lombard features with light Venetian touches. The Arco del Torrazzo divides it asymmetrically into a north and a south wing, the latter opening toward what is now Via XX Settembre. The name of its architect is not recorded in any document.

Construction began in 1525 while Crema was under Venetian control, a period of growth for the city. The building emerged during an era of artistic and political transformation for the region.

The palace houses the city's administrative offices and reflects Crema's importance as a civic center. People gather on the plaza in front, and the building shapes the rhythm of activity in this central square.

The ground-floor portico is accessible to visitors during the day and offers a good vantage point of the square and surrounding buildings. To visit the upper floors, you need to arrange this in advance with the municipal office.

The first stone, laid on 20 April 1525 under podestà Giovanni Moro, was rediscovered in 1919 during consolidation work on the Torrazzo; a second plaque records the find. No document names the palace's architect, not even Pietro Terni's Historia di Crema.
