Splendid palace built in 1377 to house the Captain of the Mountain, the official sent from Florence to administer the Pistoiese Mountain area.
The building recalls the fate of public buildings in Tuscany during the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, but the front three rows of windows overlapping and the five arched openings in the median plane are typical of the early Florentine Renaissance. You would never expect such a thing in a small mountain village!
Nice palace of the late '300 built to house the captain of the Mountain, minister in charge to visit the castles in the area by checking the smooth running of the government.
On the facade of the building and also inside are applied 95 coats of arms of many successive captains over three centuries (1444-1742).
On the back of the building are the Pozzo del Capitano and a small botanical garden.
Cutigliano is undoubtedly the most beautiful village in the Pistoia mountains. The municipality is a symbolic place to visit.
Beautiful building in the center of Cutigliano, home of the Captains of the mountain who ruled the country up to the power of mayors who have succeeded in the years up to now, now that Cutigliano and Abetone are a joint town with only one mayor the palace will remain important expression cultural history lived by great personalities including the Medici who have left their coat of arms on the main facade.
Historic public building built in 1300, where the captain resided, or the highest public representation of the state
