The Archbishop's Palace today is the result of renovations under the prelate Philip de' Medici (mid 15th century) by the architects Francione and Baccio Pontelli, who created the inner courtyard surrounded by white marble columns. The façade, redesigned in the 17th century by Archbishop Carlo Antonio Dal Pozzo, was again modified in the neo- Renaissance style in the early 19th century. Archaeological excavations recovered Etruscan artifacts and the remains of a Roman domus that was inhabited and re-structured several times between the late Republican age and late antiquity. From the early 10th century, the area became the headquarters of the Bishops court; the Church of S. Giorgio ad Curte Piscopi, later incorporated into in the south-eastern corner of the building stood here. The Archives of the Arcidiocese of Pisa are kept in the Archbishop's palace)
