Summary
| Description |
English: Genoese Palace (Italian: Palazzo del Comune), alternatively known as the Palace of the Podestà (Turkish: Podesta Sarayı) in Galata, Istanbul. It was built in 1314 (damaged by fire in 1315 and repaired in 1316) by Montano de Marinis, the Podestà of Galata, which was a colony of the Republic of Genoa between 1273 and 1453. The building's appearance remained largely unchanged until the 1880s, when its front (southern) facade on Bankalar Caddesi was rebuilt with a different style and became known as the "Bereket Han" office building, while its rear (northern) facade on Kart Çınar Sokak retained the materials and design of the original structure, but needs restoration. |
