Palazzo del Podestà (Bologna)

Italy / Emilia-Romagna / Bologna / Piazza Maggiore, 1
 palace, historical building, 13th century construction
This was the first seat of the town government, represented by the Podestà and his judges and officers. The original layout did not differ much from today's: under the vaults of its arcades and all around it there were shops of artisans, drapers, green grocers all lined up, thronging with people, while underneath the stairs leading to the first storey notary publics drafted bills and contracts. www.bolognawelcome.com/
