Loggia del Bigallo


La Loggia del Bigallo is a late Gothic building in Florence, Italy.

The building housed the Compagnia della Misericordia, which commissioned the structure, probably the architect-sculptor Alberto Arnoldi, and was built in 1352-1358. The open loggia served to shelter the lost children who were abandoned.
In 1425, the Compagnia di Santa Maria del Bigallo moved here. The Compagnia del Bigallo cared for pilgrims and travelers in their Ospedale di Santa Maria « del Bigallo » at Fonteviva.
