History

The palace was erected after the mid-13th century fusing nearly five private homes, and closing one of the access points to the Piazza. There exists a 1340 design by Agostino di Giovanni. Completion of the palace took nearly a century. In 1466, the owner, Tofo di Cecco Sansedoni, was requested to complete the Piazza facade, and fill in many of the window arches. The street side was satisfactorily completed.[1] Some sources report the tower was truncated in order to not have it taller than the Torre del Mangia.[2] The ground floor would have had many shops lining the street and campo.[3]

The palace underwent numerous alterations, and the palace as we see it in 2014 is due to a refurbishment in pure original gothic style by the architect Ferdinando Ruggieri.

The trifore mullioned windows now appear to be partially blocked by a lower brick wall.

The interior has decorations (1645-1760) completed by Gian Domenico Ferretti and Anton Domenico Gabbiani. Gabbiani painted a Glory of the Blessed Ambrogio Sansedoni for the private chapel.

In 2015, the palace has offices and exhibition spaces for the Fondazione Fondazione Monte dei Paschi di Siena.[4]
