Palazzo VII Aprile, Municipal building in Marsala, Italy

Palazzo VII Aprile, formerly Palazzo dei Giurati, is a 15th-century building in Marsala designed by Giuseppe Moccia with facades inspired by Andrea Palladio's serliana porticoes. It has a multi-story facade and a columned portico facing Piazza della Repubblica. The building serves as the seat of the city council.

Completed in the 15th century by architect Giuseppe Moccia, who modelled the facades on Andrea Palladio's porticoes, the palace was long called Palazzo dei Giurati after the town's old council. On 7 April 1860 Marsalese patriots raised the tricolour here after the Revolt of the Gancia; arrests followed and fugitives hid in the town's quarries or fled to Malta. On the night of 11 May 1860 Garibaldi's Mille sheltered under its porticoes before leaving for Salemi.

The palazzo has served as a gathering place for Marsala's public life for centuries, making it a center of civic importance in the town. Its generous portico creates a welcoming space where locals and visitors naturally congregate.

The council chamber, the Sala delle Lapidi, can be visited during sittings of the civic council. Outside, the portico facing Piazza della Repubblica occasionally hosts free fashion shows, painting exhibitions, theatre performances and concerts. The facade was partly recoloured by temporary plaster in 2016, with renovation funds allocated in summer 2018.

The clock sits on the top of the facade, not in a tower: it was installed in 1582 with Roman numerals, and its bell was added in 1615 by the town's jurors. Spring-wound, it was often stopped by pigeons tampering with the mechanism, and in the 1970s it was repaired and replaced with a new one. The clock is kept in the Sala dell'orologio, one of the oldest of its kind in Sicily.
