Palazzo dei Priori - Volterra

Description

The Palazzo dei Priori is located in the historic center of Volterra, in the homonymous square, in the province of Pisa. It is the oldest municipal building in Tuscany. The building was also the original seat of the city's art gallery, as many paintings were housed in its rooms during the 19th century, until all the works were moved to the current location in Palazzo Minucci-Solaini. Some scenes from the book of New Moon, title of the Twilight saga by Stephenie Meyer, were set inside the building. © iStock / AlexanderNikiforov
