Palazzo Gherardi

Palazzo Gherardi is a 15th-century building in the Santa croce quarter of Florence, Tuscany, in central Italy. Its main façade is on Via Ghibellina 88, while to the right it faces Via dei Pepi. Though at present there are at least four doors, each with its own street number, historically there are only two entrances: the main one in the centre, leading to the upper stories and to the cellars, and the tradesmen's entrance to the right. Along Via Ghibellina, at ground level, besides the doors, there are a series of square stone windows with grills. There is another service entrance on Via dei Pepi, as well as what seems to be a modern door, now closed by a glass pane, and an artisan's workshop. Both the first and second floors are marked by belt course and are almost entirely occupied by serried, large, arched windows, ten on each floor.
