Map

In the centre of Lastra a Signa, near the tabernacle of the same name, on via dell'Arione, stands the Palazzo del Podestà, ancient seat of the political power of Lastra. On the facade of the two-storey building are displayed, according to tradition, the coats of arms of the podestà who have ruled Lastra. Inside you can still see some excellent frescos, including one portraying the Madonna among the Saints Michele, Pietro, Martino and Stefano, dating back to the early 15th century and attributed to a painter of the Florentine School who grew around Bicci di Lorenzo.
