The Torre dei Balivi, also known as Tour du bailliage, is one of Aosta's medieval architectural treasures.
The tower, also known as Tour Cornière in French, was mentioned as early as 1192.
In the 12th century it became the property of the local noble family De Palais (or De Palacio), who used it for their own purposes.
Later, in the 13th century, it was transferred to the Count of Savoy and served as the seat of the bailiff (in old French, Bailly).
The tower was expanded and remodeled in the 15th and 16th centuries, with new parts added to meet growing needs.
In the 17th century it was used as a prison and courthouse.
Since 2014, the tower has housed the Istituto Musicale Pareggiato della Valle d'Aosta.
