Palazzo del Tribunale - Finale Ligure

Formerly the seat of the Carrettesco government and also subsequently the judicial and administrative centre of the Marquisate of Finale. Existing at least from the early fourteenth century, it was restructured by the Marquis Giovanni I Del Carretto in 1462 who entrusted the recovery project of the structure to Giorgio Molinari; the latter modified both the interior and exterior with the construction of a new staircase and the opening of sandwiched mullioned windows. The internal spaces of the palace were revisited again in 1781 with the interest of the Governor Giovanni Benedetto Centurione of the Republic of Genoa. The facade is of great interest due to the presence of both typical 15th-century pictorial decorations and traces of all subsequent interventions. © Wikimedia Commons / Davide Papalini
