The Palazzo dell'Arte dei Beccai or Residenza dell'Arte dei Beccai is a fourteenth-century building in Florence, in Tuscany in central Italy. It faces the Orsanmichele, once a grain market, later the church of the guilds of Florence. It has had many occupants, including the Arte dei Beccai – 'guild of butchers' – from which its name derives. Since 1974 it has housed the Accademia Fiorentina delle Arti del Disegno, a learned academy of artists.
