Montelupi Palace, Renaissance palace in Old Town, Kraków, Poland.
The palace displays Italian architectural elements with a symmetrical facade, large windows, and ornamental details across its three-story structure at Szlak Street 71.
Constructed in 1613 for the Montelupi family, the building served as a residence for Italian merchants who established Poland's first postal service under King Sigismund III.
The palace became a central location for royal ceremonies in the 17th century, with funeral processions of Polish monarchs starting from this location.
The palace requires extensive renovation due to neglect since 1998, following multiple ownership changes and legal disputes between the Tarnowski family and city authorities.
From 1950 to 1998, the renovated palace housed Polish Radio offices, marking a shift from its original noble residence purpose to a media center.
