Palazzo Salimbeni

Home to the oldest bank in the world (1472) a really wonderful place to visit!

A nice little niche of a plaza in Siena. Historical due to the banking nature of all three buildings that make up the walls of this area. You can get your gelato nearby and sit at the base of the monument in the middle and let your feet rest while you enjoy your treat.

Impressive ! First bank headquarter 😍

Piazza Salimbeni is a historic square that captures Siena’s charm. The standout feature is the Gothic Palazzo Salimbeni, home to one of the world’s oldest banks, adding grandeur to the setting. The atmosphere is peaceful and elegant, perfect for a quiet pause. The statue of Sallustio Bandini highlights the piazza’s rich cultural heritage.

Beautiful little square with a single statue that is brilliantly lit at night while de emphasizing the palace behind. Excellent photo opportunities here once the sun sets.

Bunch of banks (kidding, if you're an architecture nerd these 3 buildings are WONDERFUL.)

Nice plaza to rest. And you get to see the oldest bank in the world!

Very nice square in front of the old buildings - great preserved heritage!
