Piacenza - Palazzo Comunale

31 Oct 2016 1 1 237
The erection of the Palazzo Comunale (aka "Palazzo Gotico") started in 1291 commisioned by Ghibellin leader Alberto Scoto. The palace, Alberto Scoto wanted, should have been quadrangular, but the work was stopped due to an epidemic plague. So only the norther side of the palace was finished - and till today is Piacenza´s town hall.
