Description

The Palazzo Pretoria is a Renaissance-style civic office building, built mainly during 16th-centuries, located in the Piazza San Michele of central Lucca, region of Tuscany, Italy. It was originally erected in 1370 as a tribunal or Hall of Justice for the Podesta (highest judicial and military magistrate). In 1492, housing for the Podesta was added to it and finished about 1509. Further additions were made in 1588 leaving it in its present form. It is now occupied by the courts of civil law. The statue on the pedestal in the center is of the of the architect finishing the work in 1588. The Piazza San Michele where the palazzo is located was always a reference point for commerce and government in Lucca, being the location of the Church Of San Michele In Foro which was built over the ancient Roman forum.
