Palazzo del Podesta is located in the very proximity of Palazzo dell’Arengo, in the same Piazza Cavour. Pallazo del Podesta is a medieval structure distinguished by several architectural elements: the battlements on the upper floor and 3 Gothic arches on the ground floor. The structure dates back from 1334, yet it managed to retain some of the original elements which have survived the several restoration works carried out in time (the latter of which took place between 1912 and 1922).
Besides its historic importance, Palazzo del Podesta has gained a cultural significance, being home to frequent exhibitions.
