Overlooking Piazza Grande, the Palazzo Comunale is one of Montepulciano's symbolic buildings. Originally from the 13th century and reworked by Michelozzo in the 15th century, it echoes the forms of Florence's Palazzo della Signoria, desired by Cosimo I. From the visitable tower, a breathtaking panorama opens up.
