Palazzo d'Accursio - Palazzo Comunale

6 reviews of Palazzo d'Accursio - Palazzo Comunale

A beautiful building

The Palazzo d'Accursio is also known as the Communal Palace because it is the seat of the Municipality of Bologna. The Palazzo d'Accursio includes a complex of buildings that have been united for centuries. In 1336, it became the headquarters of the Anziani ("old"), the highest magistrates of the community, and later the seat of government. In the 15th century, it was restored by Fioravante Fioravanti, adding, among other things, the Clock Tower. The facade features a 15th century terracotta Madonna and Child by Niccolò dell'Arca, up at the top. In the entrance you can see a large bronze statue of Pope Gregory XIII.
