In 1469 owned by Cardinal Pietro Barbo, nephew of Pope Eugenius IV and the future Pope Paul II it became a residential papal palace, having undergone a massive extension. The pope commissioned perhaps Alberti or Giuliano da Maiano to enlarge his palace in 1455, by incorporating into it the adjacent 9th-century basilica of San Marco. The building manifests some of the first Renaissance architectural features in Rome.
