VIA MANCI

In this street, the Saracini-Pedrotti palazzo with its facade decorated with geometric checkerboard patterns, the Trentini palazzo with an ^{eighteenth-century} facade, now the seat of the regional council, and the Fugger-Galasso palazzo from the early ^seventeenth century, follow one another. The latter is also called the palazzo del Diavolo, "palace of the devil" because according to a legend quoted by Goethe in 1786, it was built by the devil himself in a single day! In reality it was built in 1602 for Georg Fugger, descendant of the powerful Augusta family.
