Facciata Palazzo Agostini e Caffè dell'Ussero (L. Corevi, Comune di Pisa)
Palazzo Agostini: the result of the unification of two medieval tower houses that took place in the fourteenth century by the will of the Astajo family. The façade stands out among the others on the Lungarno for its elegance and materials, mainly terracotta, which is why it is also known as the Palazzo Rosso (Red Palace). Since 1496, it has been owned by the Agostini family, still living there, specialized in the silk trade. On the Gothic front, marked by mullioned windows, we can still see the coats of arms of the Agostini, the Della Seta, Fantini and Venerosi families. The top floor was originally opened with a loggia, then it was closed in the 19th century. Behind the building there is a private roof garden, which spreads over four levels. In the back, where the church of Sant'Ilario in Porta Aurea once stood, is the oldest Italian cinema still existing, inaugurated in 1905, currently called Cinema Lumière, closed in 2011 and transformed into a venue for concerts and music (the first screenings were made inside the Caffè dell'Ussero in 1899).
