Pubblico Palace (Palazzo Pubblico)

Towering over Piazza del Campo, the 14th-century Gothic Palazzo Pubblico stands as a testament to Siena’s historical wealth and power. This imposing structure, with its intricate stonework and soaring bell tower, continues to serve as Siena’s City Hall, maintaining its original function for over 700 years. Inside, the Civic Museum houses an impressive collection of Sienese school frescoes, offering a glimpse into the city’s rich artistic heritage. Visitors can also climb the Torre del Mangia for panoramic views of the terracotta rooftops and the distant Crete Senesi hills.
