# Palazzo Pubblico and the Museo Civico
The city hall on Piazza del Campo houses some of the most important medieval frescoes in Europe.
Key facts
- Highlight: Lorenzetti's 'Allegory of Good and Bad Government' (1339) — political art that still feels relevant.
- Also: Simone Martini's Maesta and the Sala del Mappamondo.
- Ticket: ~9 euro, combinable with Torre del Mangia for ~15 euro.
- Time needed: 60-90 minutes.
- Often less crowded than the Duomo. Best mid-afternoon.
What I tell visitors
If you have one hour for a museum, this is the choice. The Lorenzetti frescoes alone justify the trip to Siena.

Final word
Whatever brings you to Siena — food, the Palio, the Tuscan countryside — slow down. The city repays attention. If you have a tip to add or a correction, write us at redazione@visitsienaguide.it.
