The Palazzo Minerbetti is an urban palace building located on Via de' Tornabuoni #3 at the corner with Via del Parione, which edges into the Piazza Santa Trinita, Florence, in central Florence, Italy. The palace is an assembly of palaces from the 12th and 13th centuries, joined under one family in the 15th century. The corner of the building on Via del Parione has a family heraldic shield. There are two quoted traditions for the derivation of the Minerbetti, one claims that it derives from a cadet or minor branch of an English Becket family, emigrating prior to the 15th century, perhaps related to the family Saint Thomas Becket of Canterbury, leading to an italianizations of Minor-Becket.
