The Townhall
Built on a former townhall dating back to 1286, this palace was re-built between 1545 and 1588, and rearranged in 1935.keyboard_arrow_right
In those years was also placed outside the statue of Julius Caesar - the city’s founder - which is a copy of a work of art kept in Rome, by the Campidoglio. Inside the townhall are available to tourists the remains of a roman domus dating back to 1st-2nd centuries a.C.
