Story · Salone della Podestà
You're standing on Piazza Maggiore, the big square at the heart of Bologna. Look at the north side, straight across from the huge Basilica of San Petronio. That long building with the row of arches is the Palazzo del Podestà. It went up around 1200, which makes it the oldest palace on the square.
