| Palazzo Pretorio or Palazzo Vicariale |
 | |
The Palazzo of Vicari was originally property of the Albertis. Lately it became the seat of the Florentine Vicari, that is to say who was on behalf of the Florentine Republic. It is a typical Tuscan civic-castle, with a crenelled roof and a watch tower. Noteworthy are the dungeons, the gardens and the main hall which houses civic exhibitions. The walls embody different alt relieves representing coats of arms.
