Torre Civica (12th century)

This is all that remains of the medieval Palazzo del Podestà, which was surrounded by a moat and often refered to as “Rocca Minore”.  Most of the palace was destroyed the earthquake of 1751.  The late baroque lantern of the surviving tower was added after  the earthquake.

This palace (to the left in the photograph above), which was built after the earthquake of 1751, now houses the Museo Regionale dell’Emigrazione Pietro Conti.

Palazzo Comunale (1768-9)

This palace was built after the earthquake of 1751 on the ruins of the old Palazzo delle Arti e Priori.  It is made up of three rooms, one over the other, which now house a museum that documents the experiences of those who emigrated from Italy in the 18th and 19th centuries.
