    Palazzo Farnese, built in the second half of the 1500s under the direction of the architect Jacopo Barozzi, known as Vignola. After various events, this imposing building - which hosted many homeless people during the Second World War - is now home to the City's Civic Museums.

    Inside, the Madonna adoring the Child with the infant Saint John (known as Botticelli's Tondo) in the Pinacoteca stand out; the Sala dei Fasti Farnesiani, the room that more than any other exalts the Farnese family through pictorial representations; the curious Carriage Museum, one of the most prestigious in Italy on the subject; and the Archaeological Museum of the city and the territory which among its collections houses the famous Liver of Piacenza, an Etruscan find linked to the practices of the haruspic priests.
