There are many windows on the facade of the Palazzo Pretorio, the 13th century building in the Piazza dei Priori, Volterra in Tuscany, Italy, and a close-up view shows the artistry of the architects and builders of that era.
Until the early 16th century the Palazzo Pretorio was the home of the Capitano del Popolo - the Captain of the People.
The facade of the palace which incorporates a number of other buildings and therefore a number of different building styles, features numerous groups of small windows which are decorated by a central pillar and decorative arches.
These small windows face into the Piazza dei Priori which is situated at the heart of the old town of Volterra in the province of Pisa in the Tuscany, Italy.
