Palazzo Landi, Piacenza

The Palazzo Landi is a Renaissance-style palace located on Via dei Consiglio #15 in the historic center of Piacenza, northern Italy.

History
The Landi family was a prominent noble family in Piacenza. Agostino Landi was granted territories in Borgotaro by the Holy Roman emperor Charles V. But intrigues, including the accusation of being part of the conspiracy against the Farnese in the Sanvitale Conspiracy, led to the expropriation by 1582 of most of their properties. This palace has since been owned by the government of Piacenza.

The palace was constructed by uniting some medieval houses located on the site. It was commissioned by Manfredo Landi, and the architect was Giovanni Battagio. The building now has offices of the Council of Justice, then the seat of the Finance Court. It is notable for the marble sculpted main portal.
