Palazzo Uguccioni

Palazzo Uguccioni

Palazzo Uguccioni is located in Piazza della Signoria in Florence, Italy. It is the most magnificent building on the square after Palazzo Vecchio, with an exterior reminiscent of the works of Bramante and Raphael in Rome, making it one of the most distinctive buildings in Florence.

The history of Palazzo Uguccioni can be traced back to 1550, built in the most popular architectural style of Florence at the time. It is also the only building in Florence whose façade features columns. When it was constructed, Palazzo Uguccioni was the only private building in Florence, and its columned façade has long intrigued scholars. Above the main entrance of the palace is a bust of Francesco I de' Medici, serving as a tribute to the Grand Duke.
