    Itt működik a helyi országgyűlés, a Nagytanács, ami egyszerre két régens-kapitányt választ az ország élére. Ez a hajdani Római Köztársaság kettős konzuli rendszerének koppintása. A régens-kapitány kinevezése csak 6 hónapra szól. Ugyanaz a személy csak 3 év elmúltával választható újra államfőnek.

    Wenn man schon in San Marino 🇸🇲 ist, dann darf ein Besuch beim bekannten Palazzo Pubblico natürlich nicht fehlen. Dieses Regierungsgebäude ist sowohl von innen als auch von außen absolut sehenswert! Die vielen lateinischen Schriftzüge und Verzierungen verleihen dem Ganzen einen Hauch Antike. Wissenswertes: Der Palazzo Pubblico in San Marino ist zugleich Rathaus sowie Sitz des Consiglio Grande e Generale, des Parlaments und der Regierung des Kleinstaats, der Capitani Reggenti, des Consiglio dei XII und des Congresso di Stato. Der Status UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe hat dazu beigetragen, dass das historische Zentrum, in dem sich der Palazzo Pubblico befindet, 2013 zum autofreien Gebiet erklärt wurde. Der Palazzo ist auf dem Revers von San Marinos Zwei-Euro-Münze abgebildet.

    All day was really amazing. Local spirit is very interesting. Many shops with souvenirs, cafes and restaurants. For 10 eur per person you can go to the highest tower and 5 more museus in the city.

    Der Ort gehört zu den Orten die man in San Marino gesehen haben muss. 🇸🇲 Mit etwas Glück kann man Zeuge von Staatsakten an diesem Platz werden.

    Palazzo del. PARLAMENTO di San Marino. Veramente una chicca poterlo visitare. Compreso nel biglietto cumulativo delle Torri e altri musei. Visita da fare assolutamente

  • 5/5 Noemi G. 1 month ago on Google • 801 reviews New
    Really, really loved this a lot! Included in the SanMarino Pass, you can enter inside this building to watch a video about the history of this Republic, and then visit the official Parliament when it is free - something really breathtaking. The shift of the guards is only available during Summer, from June to September, every 30 minutes.

    This is a beautiful and historic building next to one of the prettiest squares in the country/city. The building is also the official government building for the country but hardly anyone seems to visit it (though we were there on a Sunday). Use your TuttoSanMarino card to buy the five multi-museum pass for 7.50 euros (for this palace, two other museums and the two towers) - which is excellent value as just seeing the two towers costs 6.50 euros and this museum is 3 euros otherwise. Inside there is an entrance hall and up a flight of stairs there are two chambers: the main general council chamber with a huge painting of San Marino presumably. Another smaller chamber is next to it but you cannot go inside it. Also there is a bust of Abraham Lincoln and a quote he made about the country. All in all, it's worth a quick look but only takes about 10-15 minutes.

    I only visited it externally but I can say that it is still a beautiful building

  • 5/5 Frank Y. 4 months ago on Google • 582 reviews
    You can enter by purchasing the entire ticket that includes access to 8 museums. The inner part has two floors. The second floor is very gorgeous but small.

  • 5/5 Goran A. 5 years ago on Google • 580 reviews
    Historic building that still serves as a government seat to the city. With official ceremonies taking place within, there are guards who stand in front of the entrance doors, as it was in the past, giving the tourists quite the interesting photo opportunities.

    Le plus intéressant des "musées" de la petite principauté. En effet s'agissant d'un bâtiment publique on découvre réellement un peu la culture de la zone, avec notamment la fameuse relève de la garde. La visite est par contre assez courte, mais cela vous laissera le temps de faire les trois tours.

    Palazzo Pubblico is a lovely building. It is located in the small but beautiful Piazza della Liberta square. The Palazzo Pubblico ( Public Palace ) building of San Marino, also known as Palazzo del Governo, is the place where the official ceremonies of the Republic of San Marino are held and is the seat of the main institutional and administrative bodies, such as the Captains Regent, the Great and General Council, the Council of the XII and the Congress of State. The rich history of this building is extremely interesting. The building stands where once stood the Domus Magna Comunis, that is the old palace, dated around the end of the fourteenth century (1380-1392). The new public building was built between 1884 and 1894 to a design by the Roman architect Francesco Azzurri, who designed it in the severe and simple style of the municipal buildings of the 13th and 14th centuries. The facade of the public building is supported by three pointed arches and is characterized by the presence of three large openings and the clock tower. On the right of the façade is a bronze statue of the founder of the Republic, the Saint Marino, built in 1894 by the sculptor Giulio Tadolini. On the clock tower is possible to see a mosaic triptych depicting the saints Leo, Agata and Marino. The interior of the Palazzo Publico is extremely richly decorated with paintings, statues, frescoes from the Atri, hall of the Council of the XII until hall of the Great and General Council.

    Bello questo palazzo in centro storico a San Marino con una sala parlamentaria sovrastata da un bellissimo dipinto. Si respira la storia di libertà e rispetto di questa piccola orgogliosa repubblica

    Der Palazzo Pubblico in San Marino ist zugleich Rathaus sowie Sitz des Consiglio Grande e Generale, des Parlaments und der Regierung des Kleinstaats, der Capitani Reggenti, des Consiglio dei XII und des Congresso di Stato. Die Wachablöse findet alle 30 Minuten statt. Ein sehr schöner Arbeitsplatz für die Abgeordneten.

    One of our favourite places in this area: Palazzo Pubblico with its square crenelated tower was built in the late 1800s. The facade is decorated with coats-of-arms of the Republic and its four municipalities, and inside, a staircase leads to the Council Hall on the top floor. It’s pretty crowded during the summer. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

    Громадський палац який можна відвідати та побачити де засідає правління держави. А правлять країною два регент капітани. Також можна побачити зміну варти.

    The Public Palace of San Marino was built on the ruins of an old dome. You can see the guards coming out from time to time. In front of it you have a wonderful square that offers a great view.

  • 5/5 Davide B. 5 months ago on Google • 163 reviews
    Sicuramente una delle "attrazioni" che più meritano una visita a San Marino. Un ringraziamento anche al signore che vende i biglietti all'ingresso, davvero cordiale e gentile.

  • 5/5 Robert H. 6 months ago on Google • 158 reviews
    The city hall with its small parliament. I had visited the Tower no.1 and the ticket was +1 attraction, so I chose this one and it was worth it. I was lucky to see the guards changing procedure.

  • 3/5 GREEK T. 2 years ago on Google • 153 reviews
    The City Hall located at Palazzo Publico has nothing interesting to see. Entrance is expensive but the ticket is useful since it can be used to visit Guaita and Museo di Stato free.

    Palazzo che richiama la storia e la politica dello Stato. La sala del Consiglio Grande molto bel fatta. L'occhio è ovviamente attratto dall'affresco, ma anche tutte le altre pareti, il soffitto e il camino sono capolavori.

  • 2/5 Alberto M. 5 months ago on Google • 6 reviews
    Il palazzo era non visitabile per due giorni consecutivi in cui eravamo a San Marino. Sono comprensibili le esigenze istituzionali, ma sarebbe stato auspicabile almeno: 1. Avere un pass dei musei a costo ridotto, dato che una delle principali attrazioni era chiusa. 2. Avere un'informazione circa aperture e chiusure almeno una settimana in anticipo sul sito ufficiale del portale turistico. 3. Avere la possibilità di una piccola finestra di visita al giorno. La maggior parte dei turisti verrà qui un giorno solo nella propria vita e raramente vi farà ritorno.

    Dieses Rathaus/Regierungssitz ist sehenswert, da serh imposant für die Ortsgröße gebaut. Leider war an diesem Tag eine Regierungssitzung und das Gebäude nicht zu besuchen. Trotzdem der Blickfang im Zentrum.

    The current building was built between 1884 and 1894. It was designed by the Roman architect Francesco Azzurri whose marble bust we can see under the porch, to the right . The Coat-of-arms of the Republic is visible between the two small windows of the mezzanine. In the corner, also at the mezzanine level, there is a bronze statue of Saint Marino. The bell tower bears images of Saint Agata, Saint Marino and Saint Leo positioned above the clock.
