This is Palazzo Boyl, one of the most characteristic building in my town. Inside it there is one of the three medieval towers built during the Pisan occupation. The tower, named Lion Tower, was incorporated in the Boyl Palace because heavily damaged after British (1708), Spanish(1717) and French (1793) attacks. The balls of the cannon shots of these three assaults were put on the wall of the building and you can still see them there.
