Lonely Planet review for Palazzo del Banco di Santo Spirito

The early-16th-century Palazzo del Banco di Santo Spirito was designed by Antonio Sangallo the Younger and was the mint of Papal Rome. The facade of the building resembles a Roman triumphal arch and the two baroque statues crowning it represent Charity and Thrift.

In 1605 Pope Paul V formed the Banco di Santo Spirito (Holy Spirit Bank) which still exists as part of the Banca di Roma.
