Madama Palace (Corso del Rinascimento)
Built by the Medici in the sixteenth century, this building derives its name from Madame Margherita of Austria, the illegitimate daughter of the Emperor Charles V, who married first Alessandro de'Medici and then Ottavio Farnese. The palace has a beautiful sixteenth-century facade, the work of Maruccelli and Cardi, and beautiful rooms with frescoes and various decorations. It has been the headquarters of the Senate since 1871. |
