Piazza del Campo

            The Palazzo Pubblico (town hall) -- a palace in Siena, Tuscany, Italy. 
Construction began in 1297 to serve as the seat of the Republic of Siena's government. 
The outside of the structure is an example of Italian medieval architecture with Gothic influences. The facade of the palace is curved slightly inwards (concave) to reflect the outwards curve (convex) of the Piazza del Campo, Siena's central square, of which the Palace is the focal point.
The campanile or bell tower, Torre del Mangia, was built between 1325 and 1344.
