Pisa - Logge di Banchi

Facing the Palazzo Gambacorti, to the southeast, can be seen the Logge di Banchi, a grandiose loggia built in 1603-05 to house the cloth-market. The upper floor, which was added later, contains part of the State Archives. From the Ponte di Mezzo, which spans the Arno here, there are views of the lungarni, the streets running along the banks of the river.
