關於
The Palazzo del Podesta, also known as Palazzo del Governatore, is a 13th-century civic palace located in Piazza del Plebiscito in central Viterbo, region of Lazio, Italy. It is attached and mainly accessible through the arch over Via Filippo Ascenzi connecting it to the larger Palazzo della Commune or Comunale.
This palace has a tall stone bell-tower (Torre del Orologio formerly Torre dei Monaldeschi) rising behind it; the tower at about its midpoint has a clock, first added in the 15th-century. The largest bell in the tower derives from the church of Santa Maria della Verita. Diagonally across the piazza is the church of Sant'Angelo in Spatha, which has a marble replica of the Ancient Roman Sarcophagus of Bella Galiana on the facade.
