Begun in 1444 by Michelozzo for Cosimo de' Medici, was home of the Medici for 100 years. The palazzo was later acquired by the Riccardi family and now houses government offices.
The main attraction of this palace is the chapel "Cappella dei Magi" on the upper floor. Painted on its walls is Benozzo Gozzoli's famous Arrival of the Magi in Bethlehem, finished in 1460 and celebrating both the birth of Christ and the greatness of the Medici family.
