What people say

Wiktoria Górska-Kijanka
"The monumental structure is closely integrated with the square. Its parallelepiped form, entirely clad in Zandobbio marble, features 21-meter-high façades and a width of 50 meters, covering an area of 7,500 m². The main façade, facing the square, boasts a grand portico with twelve giant-order pillars supporting an architrave inscribed with the dedication: "To Antonio Locatelli, thrice awarded the Gold Medal, hero of the war and the revolution," along with the date "XVII year E.F." Each pillar is paired with a copper lamp. Above the central entrance is a balcony designed for public speeches, equipped with a movable copper podium. A large glass window, framed in stone, dominates the upper section of the façade, while the coffered ceiling of the pronaos is adorned with circular elements. The roof is entirely flat, reflecting a purist aesthetic. "
